If a goal of yours is to explore more of the great state we call home this year, we have you covered. Below are 12 of the best small towns in Arizona to visit this year - one for each month - so you can discover new places in every season.

1. January - Greer

Kick off the year with a relaxing mountain getaway in beautiful Greer. The Greer Lodge Resort & Cabins is the perfect place to pamper yourself while enjoying the peaceful, snow-covered landscape.

2. February - Bisbee

Arizona achieved statehood on Valentine's Day in 1912, so why not celebrate by visiting a town that was a major hub for one of our state's most crucial industries? Bisbee is a former copper mining camp that now attracts artists and other creative types, and it has a quirky charm that you'll fall in love with.

3. March - Williams

Spring has sprung! It's time to go chasing wildflowers, and Williams has some of the best in Arizona. Known as the "Gateway to the Grand Canyon," this funky little Route 66 town is brimming with natural beauty (and plenty of kitschy diners and souvenir shops).

4. April - Leupp

Located on the Navajo Nation near Flagstaff is the town of Leupp, which is home to one of our state's most incredible natural wonders: Grand Falls. This breathtaking waterfall is fed by snowmelt, so early spring is the best time to visit.

5. May - Globe

Cinco de Mayo only comes once a year, so celebrate in a big way with some the best Mexican food in Arizona. The small town of Globe has a mouthwatering Mexican restaurant on almost every corner, and you'll want to try them all.

6. June - Concho

Say hello to summer when you visit Red Rock Lavender, a vineyard and lavender farm in Concho. Their annual lavender festival takes place every June, and it's a can't-miss event.

7. July - Pine

Arizona summers are no joke, and it's essential to find ways to keep cool. Fossil Creek Falls, a beautiful waterfall hiking trail in Pine, is one such place. It'll quickly become your new go-to swimming spot! Please note: permits are required to access the trailhead between April 1 and October 1.

8. August - Summerhaven

Perched high atop Mt. Lemmon, Summerhaven only has about 40 permanent residents. The town is ideal for escaping the late summer heat - it's only 30 miles north of Tucson, but up to 30 degrees cooler! Plus, the Mt. Lemmon General Store has the best homemade fudge you'll ever try.

9. September - Flagstaff

If you've never seen the golden aspen trees in Flagstaff during fall, consider this a sign to visit this year. You can take a scenic chairlift ride through the foliage at the Arizona Snowbowl for even more eye-popping views.

10. October - Jerome

Is it really spooky season without a trip to Jerome? Once known as the "Wickedest Town in the West," this living ghost town is home to the infamous Jerome Grand Hotel. A former hospital that primarily treated mine workers, the historic building saw upwards of 9,000 deaths... and many of those who perished still lurk within the walls.

11. November - Strawberry

Although it isn't winter yet, a good snow day is the best way to welcome the holiday season. Head up into the White Mountains and spend some time in Strawberry, a quaint little town that's so easy to love. Stay at the Strawberry Inn for a truly picture-perfect November escape!

12. December - Prescott

Close out the year in Prescott, Arizona's official "Christmas City." The charming small town really knows how to celebrate the season, with festivities taking place all month long. The courthouse light display is one of the most magical sights you'll ever behold!
