Gateway to the White Mountains |
|
|
| Eagar and Springerville are situated on the northeast slopes of Arizona's White Mountains. This area, known as Valle Redondo (Round Valley), offers refreshing, clean, cool air and skies that go on forever. The evening skies are ablaze with beautiful sunsets and filled with brilliant stars! Escape to the White Mountains and enjoy the peace, the quiet, and the beauty of the land. |
|
| These two towns also offer an abundance of outdoor activities - fishing, hiking, hunting, OHV trail riding, horseback riding, downhill and cross-country skiing nearby, snowmobiling, ice fishing and more. Museums reflect the heritage in the region and the archaeological sites and ruins provide a history of the area's first inhabitants. |
