There's so much to love about Pinetop-Lakeside, Arizona, the hub of the scenic White Mountains. This vacation getaway area in central-eastern Arizona is a favorite retreat of the desert-dwellers in Phoenix, Scottsdale and Tucson to escape the summer heat. At an elevation of about 7,200 feet, Pinetop-Lakeside features cool refreshing summer temperatures with an alpine-type setting of tall mountain peaks and lush forests that boasts of four season beauty and year-round outdoor adventure.
The entire White Mountains area features tall pines, crystal clear mountain lakes and dozens of creeks and rivers that meander from mountain slopes. This means great trout fishing and colorful meadows of springtime wildflowers and all year recreation including hiking, cross country skiing, horseback riding, fishing, ice fishing, sledding, snowmobiling, hunting, golf and some of the most picturesque camping you will ever experience.
Scenic Location
Pinetop-Lakeside AZ is surrounded by the Apache/Sitgreaves National Forest and the White Mountain Apache Indian Reservation which owns the Sunrise Ski Resort and the Hon-Dah Resort Casino. The White River flows east, the Black River south. Less than 20 miles southwest of the White Mountain Apache Tribe's headquarters in Whiteriver, they flow together to form the Salt River. On the northern flank of the mountains, the Little Colorado starts its nearly 300-mile journey northwest across the Painted Desert to join the Colorado River, marking the point where Marble Canyon becomes the Grand Canyon.
