Cochise County-Land of Legends

Go birding or hiking, learn about the Old West, visit mining towns, go wine tasting, visit Kartchner Caverns State Park – you can do it all in just a few days without ever leaving Cochise County. Located in southeast Arizona, this is one of the most culturally, historically and geographically diverse areas in the American Southwest: Benson, Bisbee, Douglas, Tombstone, Sierra Vista and Willcox - legendary communities within a short drive of one another - less than a day’s journey by stagecoach, it’s said.

Located at the center of one of the finest birding areas in the United States, Sierra Vista is often referred to as “The Hummingbird Capital of the U.S.” The mild climate, proximity to Mexico and diverse habitats, including 9,000-foot mountains and the magnificent San Pedro River Valley, make southeastern Arizona a major hot spot for rare and unusual species of birds.
