The Alpine Area includes the small mountain communities of Alpine, Nutrioso, Hannagan Meadow, & Blue in Eastern Arizona’s White Mountains.
Alpine is located at an elevation of 8,050 feet in the eastern end of the White Mountains and surrounded by the Apache-Sitgreaves National Forest. Alpine is a popular destination for hunting, fishing, wildlife & bird watching, & camping. Alpine is near the headwaters of the San Francisco River and 6 miles west of the New Mexico border.
When visiting or living in Alpine you can choose to enjoy activities such as boating, kayaking, fly & bait fishing, hiking, mountain biking, wildlife and bird watching or just relax sitting on the shore of one of our lakes & streams or sitting in a chair on the porch. Visitors and residents enjoy a slower pace of life in the Alpine area & it’s a place to reflect and rejuvenate. We also have a winter season in which to enjoy the snow sports & experience the quiet after a snowfall.
