Make the Most of Your Visit Welcome to Fort Bowie National Historic Site! This park was uniquely created as a hike-in site to help preserve the natural, cultural, and historic resources that can be found within the park. A three mile round-trip, easy to moderate trail, winds through the park and takes visitors past the remains of a Butterfield Stage Station, the old post cemetery, an Apache wikiup, Apache Spring, and finally the first and second forts. A park visitor center and museum are located near the ruins of the second fort. ![]() Basic InformationLearn what you need to know to have a safe and enjoyable visit to the park. ![]() Directions and TransportationThe park is a little off the beaten path, but getting here is half the adventure! ![]() AccessibilityIf you're unable to hike into the park, check out our accessibility information. ![]() Things to DoFort Bowie is a great place to recreate and explore.
