The San Bernardino National Wildlife Refuge spans 2,369 acres of wetlands along the Mexican border, with elevations ranging between 3,720 and 3,920 feet.
The refuge, established in 1982, preserves the San Bernardino ciénega, which represented the most substantial wetland system throughout the surrounding geographical region.
The refuge functions as an educational center where visitors learn about wetland ecosystems while observing 270 bird species and numerous native Arizona fish.
Visitors can access the refuge through Highway 191, located 12 miles north of Douglas, with the main entrance coordinates at 31.34558 N, 109.28302 W.
