The San Francisco Peaks are a beautiful volcanic mountain range located just north of the city of Flagstaff, comprised of six peaks that circle the caldera of the now-dormant San Francisco Mountain volcano. The peaks include Humphreys Peak, the largest mountain in the state of Arizona, which reaches a height of 12,633 feet above sea level. Other dramatic peaks include the 12,356-foot Agassiz Peak and the 11,969 Fremont Peak. Lava flows, volcanic rock, and deep Alpine forest habitats surround the peaks, which are located within the gorgeous Coconino National Forest day-use recreation area. 30 miles of recreational hiking trails are offered throughout the peaks, which are also home to the famed Arizona Snowbowl skiing resort. On clear days, visitors can see the Grand Canyon's North Rim from atop Humphreys Peak.
