Patagonia Lake State Park

Leaving Bisbee, we stopped at Patagonia Lake State Park 

for a couple of days. It is a lovely place to relax and do a bit of hiking and is in close proximity to the Sonoita area wineries.

By mid morning the temperature had warmed enough for an easy, pleasant and muddy 3.5 mile hike along Sonoita Creek

Revisiting a few wineries and the Copper Hop Ranch Brewery from previous years, we were disappointed to find not many folks were out on a sunny, yet windy Friday afternoon. However, Frank at Arizona Hops and Vines was out with all his glory.

Back at the Patagonia Lake we took a short walk over the bridge

and around the campground

Taking advantage of the sunshine and calmer breeze, we had our evening wine outdoors.

If you ever want to go “where the WiFi is weak” consider Patagonia Lake State Park in Arizona. It is also considered to be one of the best places for bird watching in the world.

We left Patagonia Lake about a week ago but due to a very busy week here in Lost Dutchman State Park we are just now getting the blog updated. More about that later.
