Chino Valley

Chino Valley occupies a broad high-desert basin in north-central Arizona, northwest of Prescott. Big Chino Wash runs through this open valley, part of the Verde River headwaters, where ranchland, grassland and low hills define the terrain. The town lies in Yavapai County, in a landscape long connected to ranching and travel routes across Arizona’s interior. Its territorial-era past remains significant: the U.S. Army established the first Fort Whipple in Chino Valley in 1863 before relocating the post to Prescott the following year.
