The view from the church is absolutely breathtaking. On a clear day, you CAN practically see forever! Well, at least well into Mexico! The church is quaint and nice, there are Stations of the Cross here, up off the valley floor in the Huachuca Mountains, Our Lady Of The Sierra's Shrine is a fantastic place to visit! ADVISORY...THE HANDICAPPED PARKING NEAR THE STAIRS IS NOT AS GOOD AS THE HANDICAPPED PARKING AT THE TOP OF THE STAIRS!

I went in the Visitor Center and learned about the history from here. The first Europeans came here. They didn't find treasures. They continued there trek. It was gard. It was a desert. and deep canyons to probe the way across the broad deserts. There were high mountains and the Great plains. The coronado expedition were the first to write what they saw. They marched and marched to find "New Mexico". They found no on indian empires. A new settlers in Mexico Central Mexico. The Spaniards invaded. Now they had a new settlers in Mexico. General Vasquez de Coronado.. They celebrating the culture. They work with cattles. Eusebio Francisco Kino came in 1687 first. He started with 24 missionaries. I found all of this in the Visitor Center. It is really attractive!

My biggest tip is to bring lots of water. I did this hike with my family and was able to see the old cemetery and overall it was just a fun hiking experience. If you are into learning about the history of Cochise County, this is one for the list! This review is my experience from Summer of 2014, but it does not give me an option as it was long ago. But I would do it again, when it is much cooler.
