Tortilla Flat is an authentic remnant of an old west town, nestled in the midst of the Tonto National Forest, in the Superstition Mountain Range. Tortilla Flat started out as a stagecoach stop in 1904 and neither fire nor flood has been able to take away this historic stop along the Historic Apache Trail. The small unincorporated community of Tortilla Flat is in far eastern Maricopa County, not far from the Town of Queen Creek. It's the last surviving stagecoach stop along the Apache Trail.
