In 1964, twenty-nine NASA astronauts visited Flagstaff for early geologic training before the first Moon landing. Left to right: trainer Dale Jackson (U.S. Geological Survey), astronauts C.C. Williams, Frank Borman (Apollo 8) and Gene Cernan (Apollo 10 and Apollo 17) at Sunset Crater Volcano National Monument.

Flagstaff is located in the mountains of northern Arizona, and is the destination for all seasons and all types of adventurers. Depending on the time of year and your calling for outdoor adventure, your experiences could include world-class downhill skiing, hundreds of miles of scenic trails for hiking, outdoor festivals from June to October, magnificent fall colors, or a gaze at the stars – as Flagstaff is the first designated international dark sky city. Flagstaff is the best of both worlds; after a day of exploring the many nearby national monuments and Grand Canyon National Park, enjoy a vibrant city at night. Enjoy one-of-a-kind local shops, art galleries, dining and seven award- winning craft breweries in a historic downtown setting.

For the history buffs, 2018 will kick off our one year celebration of the first Moon landing. Much of the lunar mapping for the Apollo missions and training for the famed NASA astronauts happened right here in Flagstaff. There will be celebrations, suggested itineraries, and activities beginning July 20, 2018 through July 20, 2019 – the actual date marking the 50th anniversary of this historic leap for mankind. (See historic photo below)

We invite you to turn the pages and start planning your uniquely Flagstaff vacation now.
