Fortunately for Valley residents, they need only venture a few hours north or south to find some of the very best the state has to offer. From the gorgeous red rocks of Sedona to the purple mountains majesty in the south of our state AZ Foothills readers share their choice escapes within Arizona.
These are Arizona Foothills Best of Our Valley 2017 contest winners. Winners will be featured in the April 2017 issue of Arizona Foothills Magazine, a tell-all guide to the best people and places in the Valley of the Sun, as chosen by its residents.
As a special thanks to the winners and those who helped them attain their Best Of status, a celebratory bash will be held in May 2017. Stay tuned for details on the fabulous fete!
