Family Fun

Think of Arizona as America's natural "amusement park," where family fun and adventure await in every corner of the state. Add an engaging selection of Old West towns, dude ranches, mines, man-made lakes, railroads and other diversions, and the result is a family vacation like no other.

Children of all ages can stand in four states at one time at Four Corners Monument on the Navajo Nation in Northern Arizona. As one of the seven natural wonders of the world, the Grand Canyon is a mile-deep gorge that stretches for 277 miles across Northern Arizona and is packed with exciting activities. Zoos and wildlife parks offer exotic habitats, unique viewing opportunities and special events. A host of unusual museums also dots the state, including the hands-on Arizona Science Center, the Hall of Flame Fire Museum and the Pima Air and Space Museum, to name a few.

Families on vacation can also enjoy Arizona's plentiful water activities, with Lake Powell's 2,000 miles of shoreline in the northern part of the state and the two-mile Tempe Town Lake, where motorized and non-motorized watercraft cruise the formerly dry riverbed between Tempe and Phoenix.

In Southern Arizona, a visit to a dude ranch brings out the inner cowboy in guests of all ages and winter guests can have a grand adventure in any one of Arizona's frosty ski areas.

Whether visitors have a couple of days or a couple of weeks, Arizona is a virtual playground of activities and adventures for families to enjoy.
