History Hikes: Grand Central Mill

  • Date: 01/21/2023 10:00 AM - 1:00 PM  
  • Location: Fairbank Parking Area
    Arizona

Grand Central mill processed ore from the mines in Tombstone. It is located 1.25 miles north of Fairbank. Our docent will lead the hike, explaining the history of the site and showing the foundations of the mill. The trail is gravel and uneven, with some uphill stretches. There is some shade, but it can be hot. Dress for the weather, wear good walking shoes and a hat, bring plenty of water.

This 2.5 mile (total) hike will last about 3 hours. Hike departs from the Fairbank Schoolhouse. The Fairbank parking area is about .5 mile east of the San Pedro River on Highway 82, between Tombstone and Whetstone. Admission is free. Donations gratefully accepted.
