Default South Eastern Arizona Suggestions

Hello all,
Live in south eastern part of Arizona. Anyone know of any nice scienic routes to take the wife on? Want to travel around this area, not ready to go up to the Grand Canyon on the bike yet.
Thanks for the suggestion if any.

Bizbee and Tombstone and there is the 191/Coronado Trail that runs from Clifton up to Alpine. Also you might look into southwest NM, 180 out of Alpine down Sliver City.

If you are new to riding I would not recommend the 191 (coronado trail) just yet. it's 90 miles of almost non stop twisties, best road in Arizona! the 180 through New Mexico is a nice ride. also check out Patagonia Az. most of our rides will be heading north as the temps start to rise, feel free to join in if you'd like. Catalina/Winkelman/Globe/Superior/Kearny is a nice loop also.

It used to be called Route 666, and the first time I went down it just south of Holbrook in the 70's I was blown away. It is awesome to say the least. I dare say that there is much of that territory that is still unexplored.

You have to go to Chirichaua National Park. Beautiful! It's known as Arizona's best kept secret. You look down into the Grand Canyon, but you look up at the Chirichaua's until you get to the top then you can look down over them.. Fantastic pillars and landscape.
