A Road to Treasure Seeking the riches of the Seven Cities of Cibola, Spanish explorer Francisco Vasquez de Coronado followed this route through eastern Arizona in 1540.

The 123 mile scenic highway is full of curves and captivating views of rugged terrain that runs parallel to the Arizona - New Mexico border. Along with vistas that stretch for miles are friendly communities, an abundance of recreational opportunities, and wildlife. This scenic variety is due to the elevation change of more than 6000 ft. along the route.
