Patagonia Vacation Rentals, Hotels, Weather, Map and Attractions

Patagonia is located approximately 50 miles south of Tucson, and is best accessed by scenic Highways 82 and 84. Situated 5,000 feet elevation, Patagonia, together with the communities of Sonoita and Elgin, make up the region known as The Mountain Empire. The town of Patagonia is known as an artists' haven, with numerous shops, galleries and unique restaurants located along its' downtown streets. It's also a popular birding destination, where the Nature Conservancy's Patagonia-Sonoita Creek Preserve and Patagonia Lake State Park are known worldwide for the 300 species of birds that migrate through the area and nest along the creeks and waterways. Patagonia also offers numerous hiking trails, including the historic Arizona Trail. Another well-kept secret of the area are the scenic Sonoita and Elgin wineries, where wine tastings are held every weekend, 11:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. Located east of Patagonia is the pristine San Rafael Valley, which was the backdrop for movies such as Oklahoma and Tin Cup. For Old West history buffs, the ghost towns of Harshaw, Duquesne, Mowry and Washington Camp are within a 30-45 minute drive of Patagonia. Other attractions include the Tin Shed Theater, a 100-seat venue that draws artists from around the world, and the Patagonia Butterfly Garden and the Patagonia Community Garden. An Annual Patagonia Holiday Walking Tour featuring local artists and a "Somewhat Progressive Buffet," is held each November, with almost all of the town's shops, studios, galleries and restaurants participating.
