Experience Williams

Experience Williams Experience Williams- Gateway to the Grand Canyon®! Williams, Arizona, is a very picturesque mountain town with Route 66 as the Main Street!
(1)

Less than an hour from the Grand Canyon, Williams has so many things to do…the Grand Canyon Railway departs from the train depot for the Canyon every day, see bears and amazing wildlife up close in Bearizona, walk, dine, and shop in historic downtown on Route 66 or stay in a motel right on the Mother Road. The town is nestled at the base of Bill Williams Mountain in one of the largest Ponderosa Pi

ne Forests in the world and there are miles of hiking trails, fishing, horseback riding, and skiing. Williams Main Street is one the best preserved stretches of the Mother Road in America. Walk Main Street and you’ll find vintage neon on buildings that are preserved to their original character, lots of fun shops with Route 66 merchandise, restaurants that have the character of the Route 66 heyday of the 50’s, coffee shops, internet cafes, and fine dining. Cowboys swagger through downtown and a gunfight breaks out every night right in the middle of the Mother Road April through October. Experience the down home friendliness of Williams year round during Festivals that range from rodeos, car shows, mountain men fests, home town beauty pageants, and the Christmas season Polar Express. Experience Williams- Gateway to the Grand Canyon®. Find yourself in Williams, Arizona before you visit the Grand Canyon, and we guarantee you’ll be making plans to return again and again.

Route 66 is an all-American road important to Arizona. Flagstaff, Winona, Kingman — you know the song. So why'd it skip Phoenix? Valley 101 finds out.
