There are plenty of activities to choose from for your family in Flagstaff, Arizona. The hard part is choosing which ones. Take advantage of Flagstaff’s beautiful weather and local trail systems and let your kids truly experience the outdoors.

Just continually encourage them and participate with them. When they see you enjoying the wild, they will like it more.

Top Outdoor Suggestions for Your Children to Experience in Flagstaff

Explore Outside

  • Arizona Snowbowl: Take a drive up the mountain and get a breath of fresh air. Go for a walk with the wildflowers or ride the scenic chair lift and gondola. Opening in July, Snowbowl's Summer Activities begin which includes a bungee trampoline, summer tubing, and an outdoor rock climbing wall.
  • Disc Golf: If your kids can throw a frisbee or just need space to run, check out the multiple disc golf courses you can take your whole family, too. Our favorites are Thorpe Park and McPherson.
  • Lava Tubes: Explore underground breath-taking lava tubes. Be sure to bring a headlamp. https://www.flagstaff.com/lava-tubes

  • Red Mountain: Go hike around this volcanic crater for a spectacular time. About 25 miles from Flagstaff Northwest on Highway 180. There is a parking space at the trailhead, then a 30-minute walk to the crater. Carry plenty of drinking water on a hot day.
  • Sledding in the winter: This is obviously the first thing most visitors do with their kids in Flagstaff when there is snow on the ground. But we'll mention it anyways!

Weekly Workshop Schedule »

Mike & Ronda's The Place

Mike & Ronda's is widely regarded as Flagstaff's best breakfast experience, and the kiddos like pretending to serve up their own biscuits and gravy in the play kitchen and miniature tables.

Big Foot BBQ

Located in the Basement Marketplace, Old Town Shops in downtown Flagstaff, this joint is a favorite of locals and visitors large and small because their Kids Corral and chalkboard keep the little piglets busy while you enjoy some serious pulled pork.

Crown Railroad Cafe

One word: Trains! A model train runs around the ceiling to delight the kids, and adults won't be disappointed by the yummy diner food or heralded service.

Cornish Pasty

With literally dozens of pasties to choose from, there's a really good chance that you'll find something that everyone in the family can eat and enjoy. The dining area consists of long tables and old church pews for seats making family-style dining pretty much required, other than the full bar that takes up half the place.

Sandy's Canyon

Located off of Lake Mary Road, the trail leads you along the rim of Sandy’s Canyon with great views of a large lava field with Mount Elden in the distance. The first 1.5 miles is mostly shaded and takes hikers down into Sandy’s Canyon where the trail joins the Arizona Trail, which is a good turn-around point when hiking with kids.

Buffalo Park Trails

Buffalo Park is part of the the Flagstaff Urban Trails System (FUTS, pronounced “foots”) as a non-motorized hike-bike-run-accessible recreation area. Its two short loop trails are flat, wide and ringed with Ponderosa pines and mountain views. Suitable for strollers. Take Fort Valley Road (US 180) to Forest Ave; turn right and go to the turnoff for the park at Gemini Drive; turn left and follow the signs to the park entrance.

Griffith's Spring

Griffith’s Spring is a shaded and peaceful one-mile loop trail that's wide and flat, and terminates at its namesake spring, with small exploratory trails leading to greenery, wildflowers and (watch out) poison ivy.

Wet Beaver Creek

This clear, cool brook remains pleasantly secluded in the deep red rock canyon it has cut into the southern rim of the Colorado Plateau. The stream's pools and riffles are a popular place to fish, hike, swim, and birdwatch. The waters of the stream are stocked with trout. 45 miles south of Flagstaff on graveled Forest Roads. Drive south from Flagstaff on I-17 and exit onto AZ Highway 179; drive 2 miles east on Forest Road 618 to the campground.

Slide Rock State Park

Likely the most popular spot in Oak Creek Canyon (between Flagstaff and Sedona), Slide Rock State Park is an extremely busy picnicking spot and swimming hole. The littlest children will enjoy playing "Pooh sticks" under footbridges, doing some shallow wading or dipping their feet into the cold mountain run-off, while older children can try out the natural water slides and swimming. On US 89A through Oak Creek Canyon, drive 21 miles south from Flagstaff, or 6 miles north from Sedona. You can't miss it. $20.00 Daily Entrance From the Friday before Memorial Day through the end of Labor Day: Per Vehicle (1-4 Adults) Off-Season: $10.00 per day (1-4 Adults) (This is a STATE PARK and does not honor the Federal Recreation Pass or the Red Rock Pass.)

Grasshopper Point

A large cliff-side swimming hole, this day-use site is popular with swimmers and picnickers alike. The swimming hole is shaded and cool, a good respite from the summer heat. You can also access the Allens Bend trailhead from the Grasshopper Point parking lot. Drive south from Flagstaff about 26 miles or north from Sedona for about 2 miles on US 89A. Grasshopper Point will be approximately 2 miles south of Encinoso Picnic Area on the east side of US 89A. $8 per vehicle per day (up to 5 people) in addition to the required Red Rock Pass.

Allens Bend Trail

This short, half-mile walk is one of the best easy day hikes in the Sedona area because it's one of the only paths along the banks of Oak Creek.

    Wanderlust is a small microbrewery located in the high country of Arizona, in a small business park off the beaten path. Our beers reflect our tastes and the sense of adventure that comes along with a lifetime of travel and exploration. We have a particular soft spot for Saisons and Farmhouse-style ales and the sense of place that they evoke, but we also dabble in everything from German Hefeweizens to Belgian-inspired sours; British-inspired dark ales and obscure styles like Finnish Sahtis and German Gose. We also put our own twist on new-school American styles and have even been known to dabble in the hoppy beers now and again. We preach the gospel of science behind our beers for unmatched consistency and quality at our scale, but also embrace the artistry and chaos involved with running an extensive barrel aging and sour beer program and fermenting one of our flagship ales with a local wild yeast strain.
