Amado’s rural ambiance
H
ikers, birdwatchers, cyclists and horseback riders are drawn to Amado’s rural lifestyle and striking scenery at the foot of the picturesque Santa Rita Mountains. Once a halfway station along a stage route from Nogales to Arivaca to Tucson, the community south of Green Valley today is a mix of ranches, farms, family homes and modern shops, restaurants and overnight accommodations. Visit fine restaurants, small speciality shops, bed and breakfasts, a resort, a health spa and a you-pick farm—all of which make Amado a popular getaway for visitors and residents alike.
