Campground Cochise Stronghold reviews
7 Just lucked out finding this campground empty.on a Saturday?
My first visit & now realize why Cochise loved this beautiful setting.
Wonderful USFS campground with a short nature trail and a long trail through the Dragoon Mountains.
No drinking water available.
Not recommended for low-clearance vehicles or trailers, because the unpaved entry road fords a creek (three times) and the fords have been eroded into deep dips.
This hike is beautiful. If you are hiking from the east side, it is a little over 3 miles to the top. It is a climb up.but nothing too crazy. Wonderful views and several stream crossings. If you go over the divide to the west trail head, it will add about 1.75 additional miles to your outbound trek. It is a steep climb from the west back to the top.
Great place to explore! Got off the trails and found some neat water holes and caves.
Awesome! Amazing place to hold out against the people that just fought a war to free the slaves, now come to steal the Native Americans land. Very strange memento. Beautiful canyon with amazing wildlife.
It was very nice federal recreation area but when tried to locate the actual stronghold could not find it in the over grown brush and there was no marker. Had private residences that made it difficult to try to find markers without trespassing.
10 mile round trip hike to the road on the west side and back to campground on eastside. The trail to the top was in good condition with several stream crossings. The trail from summit to the west was overgrown with grass and weeds in places but passable. Nice views of several rock formations along the trail.
