Posted By on Mon, Apr 22, 2013 at 1:00 PM

Three Cochise County parks are hosting special events through April 28 to celebrate National Park Week.

Visitors can also celebrate the 89th anniversary of Chiricahua National Monument during the week. Tours of the Faraway Ranch will be offered throughout the week.

Rangers at Coronado National Memorial will be leading a hike at 1 p.m. Friday, April 26, to Coronado Cave.

Chiricahua National Monument will waive its fee April 22-26, meaning all three parks and all activities are free throughout the week.
