Speaking of pizza, the kids LOVE Fratelli’s Pizza. The closest one is on Phoenix Ave, only about 15 minutes away. They have the traditional pizza fare - we recommend the Flagstaff Special.

Breakfast at MartAnne’s is something you must do while you are here. They are located just east of downtown on Route 66. You better go when you are hungry though, because the portions are enormous!

Coffee
Our favorite coffee place is Firecreek Coffee Company. We love to bring their beans to the cabin to enjoy out on the porch (when it's warm). The location is a trendy hangout & local art gallery offering craft coffee, beer, wine & pastries.

Walnut Canyon National Monument - One of our favorite family adventures. Located 10 miles Southeast of Flagstaff, these incredible ruins are shockingly intact and preserved by the park service for anyone to enjoy. There are two main trails you can go around the monument. First is the Rim Trail. This trail, as it sounds, goes along the rim for .7 miles and passes scattered ruins. There is no further altitude change for this one so if you are still getting used to the higher elevation this would be a good place to start. The second trail is the Island Trail. This one is a loop into the canyon that does change elevation. It is a mile long and there are 240 steps to reach the top again. But if you feel up to it, you will pass over 20 ruins.
