Patagonia-Sonoita Scenic Road

The Patagonia-Sonoita Scenic Road connects these two towns with Nogales to the south at the United States/Mexico border and north to Elgin on Highways 82 and 83. Important features to visit are the Imperial Alta Historical Society Museum and Pete’s Kitchen Outpost in Nogales; the Patagonia Lake State Park in Patagonia; and the Kentucky Camp Historic Site in Sonoita. Learn more about the area at the Patagonia- Sonoita Preserve Visitor Center south of Patagonia and check out the camping, hiking and picnicking opportunities at the Las Cienegas National Conservation Area north of Elgin. Or enjoy your picnic lunch on any of the pull=offs and roadside tables along the way.
