Many Outdoor Recreation Opportunities!

It's rare that you will come across a community that offers so many opportunities for outdoor recreation.  Sure, many areas will offer a city park or two.  And some areas across the country are located near National Forests, although those are often in remote locations.

In the case of Prescott AZ though?  This area offers so much in the way of things to do outside.  And incredibly enough, the community also offers just about everything you'd want in a place you live!  National Forest land all around the city.  Many city parks as well.  Actually, more city parks than a community this size would normally offer.

The town is a perfect place to visit on your next vacation if you want to spend your days hiking, or riding your mountain bike, or paddling along a scenic lake shore ringed in by stunning rock and cliff formations.

Prescott has it all!
