Tonto Natural Bridge is a hidden gem in Arizona. It is a state park and worthwhile spending a few hours exploring. We only had one hour, so we hiked the steep 1/2 mile into the canyon to get under the bridge. It resembles an outdoor cave with mineral deposits and petrified moss/lichen formations. A spring from above rained on our heads. This place is ancient! Next time you are driving by this place between Camp Verde and Payson, stop in for a quick visit and support our State Parks.
