The historic ghost town of Crown King, Arizona, is a world away from the rush
of the city.
Crown
King is rich in history. Experience an echo of the past when Crown King was
a booming gold mining town. The first gold mine was claimed on July 1st, 1875,
and Crown Kings post office was established June 29th, 1888.
The
now-living ghost town is located in the pine-laden forest of the Bradshaw Mountains,
in the Prescott National Forest approximately two hours from Phoenix to the
south, and Flagstaff to the north. With four gentle seasons you can experience
an awesome snow-covered winter wonderland, the colorful falling leaves of autumn,
spring flowers aplenty, refreshing monsoons and warm sultry afternoons with
the birds and butterflies of summer. There are miles and miles of trails for
hiking, biking, and off-roading, or just communing with nature, with something
for everyone, from easy to challenging.
Clear, fresh mountain air,
endless blue skies by day with countless stars in the evening, breathtaking
mountain views with true peace and tranquility await you. Crown King offers
you the opportunity to experience the sights, sounds and history of this secluded
ghost town, 6000 feet above the desert floor.
Come and experience Crown
King, Arizonas Crown Jewel!
