See the Schieffelin Monument

Another attraction a little distance from the hustle and bustle of Tombstone is the Schieffelin Monument. To get to the monument drive northwest on Allen Street and veer right onto Schieffelin Monument Road. The road turns to dirt and is not well maintained so drive slowly. The monument was designed , as per his wishes, to resemble the pile of rocks miners used to stake their claims. The monument offers beautiful views of the surrounding area, and faces Schieffelin’s beloved town of Tombstone. The park is open 8 AM to 5 PM daily. There is a picnic table on site. Please place all waste in the trashcans provided, and follow the warnings on the sign by the entrance.

Picnic at Landin Park

If you are tired of the hype in the main historic district of Tombstone go southeast on Allen Street and follow the signs to Landin Park. Landin Park has four or five covered picnic areas with a nice view of the surrounding area. It is a nice quiet place to have a picnic or just relax. Please note that the sign for Landin Park is down, so look for the entrance to the Dog Pound for the entrance to the park. Public restrooms are available on site. The park is open 6 AM to 10 PM daily.
