Official Yuma Adventure Guide | 2025 Uncover a treasure trove of history: www.VisitYuma.com/History Continue your journey of the classics at the Colorado River State Historic Park to explore the significance of this waterway as a lifeline for travelers, settlers and military expeditions. Once a vital crossing point, the park showcases restored buildings and exhibits that tell the story of the Old West, including the 1864 Quartermaster Depot, which provided supplies to frontier forts. Just a short distance away, the Yuma Territorial Prison State Historic Park gives a glimpse into the rough and rugged life of the Old West. Opened in 1876, the prison housed notorious outlaws, and today, visitors can walk through the original cell blocks, hear tales of daring escapes and imagine life behind bars. Finally, don’t miss Pivot Point, a public plaza that marks the Yuma Crossing National Heritage Area — where the first railroad entered Arizona in 1877. This important transportation hub played a crucial role in expanding the West and is now a peaceful park with interpretive displays of Yuma’s transit evolution. A Journey Through Time Named the nation’s “Best Haunted Destination” by USA Today, you’ll feel a dark energy as soon as you cross the threshold of this rustic prison with its trademark iron bars and granite cells.
