It is said that Peeples Valley is Where the Desert Breeze meets the Mountain Air. The Shrine of Saint Joseph of the Mountains is located in the Weaver Mountains, about a half-mile west of Yarnell. This hillside shrine has a chapel, the Way of the Cross, replicas of the Garden of Gethsemane and the Last Supper. Felix Lucero sculpted all of the work out of reinforced concrete. The Catholic Action League of Arizona commissioned Lucero.
Visitors can take a trail through the statues or mediate in the beautiful park like setting.
An outdoor attraction that will make your eyes dance is the scenic overlook near town. You will find the lookout point just west of Yarnell, before you begin your descent into the Valley. Highway 89 drops 2,500 feet down the side of Table Top Mountain. This steep drop occurs in only four miles. The lookout point provides a panoramic view of the desert regions below.
