Gold King Mine & Ghost Town

Out on Perkinsville Road above Jerome, Arizona, this is an open air site of old mining buildings, vintage vehicles and a working sawmill, with gold panning for visitors. It opens Wednesday through Monday and is closed Tuesdays. From March through November the gates are open from 9 to 5, and from December through February from 10 to 5. Admission is $12 for ages 13 to 79, $7 for ages 6 to 12, and free for children 5 and under and for anyone 80 or older. Call (928) 634-0053 to check the hours before a long drive.

The town runs public parking in Jerome, Arizona, along with a free shuttle service for getting around town. Spaces are available at any hour. The town website has a page on parking and the shuttle, with the current rules and any seasonal changes, and a parking ticket can be paid online there as well. Call (928) 634-7943 or write to info@jerome.az.gov with a question about a lot, a permit or a ticket. Using a lot and walking is usually simpler than hunting for a space near the shops, and the shuttle covers the rest.

An Italian restaurant in Jerome, Arizona. The dining room opens at 11 in the morning every day. It closes at 8 at night Sunday through Thursday, and at 9 on Friday and Saturday. The website is the place to look for the menu, for prices, and for any notice about a holiday closing. Arriving before the usual dinner rush makes a table easier to get in a small town where seats fill quickly. Hours can shift around holidays, so a check before a special trip is worth the minute it takes.

Pizza and pasta are the menu at 111 Main Street in Jerome, Arizona. Pies come out of a stone fired oven, the pasta is made in house, and cocktails are mixed to order. The kitchen is open to the dining room, so you can watch the pasta being shaped while you wait. Doors open at 11 in the morning and close at 8 at night, every day of the week. Call (928) 639-8477 for a table or to ask about a larger party. The website lists the menu. Hours are the same all week, which makes planning a stop simple.

A Roman Catholic church in Jerome, Arizona, at 101 County Road. The parish follows the Catholic tradition within the wider Christian church. Service times change around holy days and through the seasons of the church year, so check locally before you plan a visit rather than assuming a fixed Sunday hour. The notice board at the building is the most reliable place to look. The church stands on County Road rather than among the shops in the middle of town, so allow a few minutes to walk over from the main row of buildings.
