everything you need to know about fossil creek in arizona 💦

fossil creek is a great water hike & swimming hole to cool off in summer ☀️ fossil creek is the smaller/ shorter waterfall accessed via an easier hike from camp verde while fossil springs is accessed via bob bear trail in strawberry. both are beautiful!

🎟️: $6 per vehicle purchased online either 1 month or 48 hrs in advance! the dixon lewis lot is closest fyi! you should print & bring your permit with- you will be checked by rangers! parking opens at 8, you have to be in by 4

🚘: 14 mile washboard dirt road, rocky at the end. high clearance is best!

🥾: 2.1 mile total, 136 ft gain

🐶: allowed!

🚽: at parking lots, but trash is pack out

💦: people die or are injured yearly here. don’t swim under the waterfalls! water sandals to change into make a huge difference for walking through the water!

☀️: it’s hot as crap ok! we hiked at 830am, out by 11 and it was 80 and felt like 100.

⏰: 3 hr drive to trailhead from phoenix, 3+ hours hike & swim, so that’s a 9 hour minimum day!
