Fort Bowie
If you are looking for a fun and adventurous way to explore the history of the American West, you should visit Fort Bowie National Historic Site in Arizona. Fort Bowie was a military outpost that played a key role in the Apache Wars, a series of conflicts between the United States Army and the Apache Indians from 1861 to 1886. You can hike along the 1.5-mile trail that leads to the fort ruins, where you can see the remains of the barracks, the hospital, the cemetery, and more.
