Surrounded by the Apache-Sitegreaves National Forests, Springerville is the hub that provides access to 36 nearby campgrounds that are spread throughout the forest. Because the city and outlying areas are positioned at 7,000 feet above sea level and higher, warm summer days can quickly turn into cold nights. Campers visiting Springerville can indulge in outdoor recreational activities ranging from river and lake fishing, horseback riding, skiing, hiking and cycling.
