GOLDFIELD GHOST TOWN
AT THE BASE OF THE SUPERSTITION MOUNTAIN
This is about the only place you can just show up with your horses and get a corral for the night with out booking for 3 months. The riding in this area is the endless. You could stay here for 3 months and not ride the same trails twice. We love it here.
This is dry camping but there is water, showers and restrooms on site.
To book send and email to Mayor Bob here is the web site address

Back in the 1890’s Goldfield boasted 3 saloons, a boarding house, general store, blacksmith shop, brewery, meat market and a school house. Just when it looked like the town would outgrow Mesa, the vein faulted, the grade of ore dropped and the town died a slow painful death.
After several unsuccessful attempts to reopen the mines, the town did come to life again from 1910 on and off until 1926. After more than 115 years, travelers from all over the world still visit this gold mining town located on the historic Apache Trail and enjoy the excitement and grandeur of Arizona’s wild west!
Do you know if they board horses at Goldfield????
