White Mountain Trail System: More than 103 miles of hiking divided into 11 loop trails. Access points are located within 15 miles of the park in the adjacent Apache-Sitgreaves National Forest. For more information call (928) 333-4301. Amphitheater The amphitheater and intrepretive area is located between the no-hookup camping loops and the RV loops. Interpretive programs are held in the amphitheater, weather permitting. Ask at the ranger station about current programs; topics include wildlife, wildfire, geology, or special programs. Established 1957 Fool Hollow Lake Recreation Area 09/20 Year-round camping, fishing, picnicking, boating, and wildlife viewing make Fool Hollow Lake Recreation Area a popular place. This cool country recreation area has a 150-acre lake surrounded by towering pine trees and offers 92 hookup sites and 31 non-hookup sites. The park was named when Thomas Jefferson Adair moved into the area in 1885 to start a farm. The locals joked that only a fool would try to farm the land, and the name stuck! Arizona State Parks & Trails would like to thank its partners who worked to develop this recreation area – the US Forest Service, Arizona Game & Fish, the City of Show Low, and corporate sponsors Arizona Public Service and McCarty Construction Company. Thank you for visiting! 1500 N Fools Hollow Rd, Show Low, AZ 85901 (928) 537-3680 | 1-877-MYPARKS azstateparks.com/fool-hollow AZStateParks Like/Follow/Watch us on: 1-877-MYPARKS | azstateparks.com Fishing Show Low Creek flows into Fool Hollow Lake, providing a natural habitat for a variety of wildlife and a very diverse fishery.
