Charming Apache Junction, a city in the Maricopa and Pinal counties of Arizona, is just a 40-minute drive from the city of Phoenix. It is located at an intersection on an unpaved stagecoach trail to the nearby Superstition Mountains and nestled near the Lost Dutchman’s Gold Mine and the Goldfield Mountains. Apache Junction is currently part of a 120 mile-long “circle trail” that begins and ends in Apache Junction. Tourists come to experience the history of the old mining days and the natural wonders located within the area.
