The Hualapai Mountains rise prominently in northwestern Arizona, spanning roughly 107 square miles and reaching peaks near 8,600 ft elevation. They form a highland corridor northwest of Kingman and southeast of the Colorado River, bridging areas of Mojave Desert and lower basins with more temperate woodland zones. Key features include glistening alpine lakes, seasonal streams, and native pinyon-juniper and ponderosa pine forests. Popular activities are looped summit hikes, backcountry camping, and wildlife viewing of mule deer, mountain lion, and native birdlife. Trails often begin from access points near Highway 93 and extend into quieter canyon reaches and high ridge routes. The range also supports Native American cultural sites and serves as a watersource for the region.
