Celebrate Birds & Nature
Join us April 23–27, 2026 for the Verde Valley Birding & Nature Festival, held at Dead Horse Ranch State Park and throughout the Verde Watershed. Explore the Verde Valley’s diverse habitats during peak spring migration. Known as “the friendliest birding festival,” this four-day event features workshops, guided outings, and expert presentations for birders and nature lovers. The 2026 theme is Important Bird Areas, and the Yellow-breasted Chat is the featured bird.
Registration is open! Sign up soon, as many of the most popular trips sell out quickly.
