Trails and Tales of Cochise County

Trails and Tales of Cochise County (T&T) is the place to go for all your hiking and adventure needs in Southeastern Arizona. Through its knowledgeable tour hosts, T&T provides engaging and family-friendly hikes and tours of old town Bisbee, which exemplify not only the history and beauty of what was once the most significant, wealthiest, and rowdiest town in Arizona but also its present-day charm and laid-back ambiance.

Bisbee is a photographer’s paradise. Through laid-back, no-rush tours, T&T provides ample opportunity to fill up one’s photo scrapbook and give a lifetime of memories.

T&T also offers extended day trips for guided hikes in the nearby Mule Mountains, the Huachuca Mountains, aka Thunder Mountains, and the Dragoon Mountains, the famed site of Cochise Stronghold. In these hikes, one can ascend to the tops of Carr Peak and Miller Peak, two of the highest spots in Cochise County, visit the obelisk memorializing the treaty of 1848 between the United States and Mexico, enjoy the peace of beautiful Shady Glen Canyon, see Apache petroglyphs and metates in the Dragoon Mountains.

Experience the solitude at Council Rocks, where Chief Cochise, in October 1972, on behalf of the Chiricahua Apache, entered into a treaty with the United States. This treaty enabled the safe settlement of Bisbee and surrounding communities, among many more.

T&T also provides extended motorized tours to the border towns of Douglas, Arizona, and Agua Prieta, Mexico. It offers wine-tasting tours to vineyards near Wilcox and the Sonoita and Elgin areas in western Cochise County.

T&T also provides short day trips to Coronado Cave at the Coronado National Monument and, from November through March, to Whitewater Draw to witness the annual migration of Sandhill Cranes, red-winged and yellow-headed blackbirds, coots, ducks, and other avian species.
