Brown Canyon Ranch

Brown Canyon Ranch offers a glimpse back in time and ample opportunities for an enjoyable day with the family. Located on the northeastern flanks of the Huachuca Mountains just outside Sierra Vista, this historic site is set in a scenic grassland with oak and juniper trees and panoramic mountain views. Visitors can tour the historic ranch house, have a picnic under shady cottonwood trees, stroll along the pathway around the pond, and hike nearby trails into Miller Peak Wilderness.
