Maricopa County Parks and Recreation: Saguaros in Sunset
June 25 @ 6:30 pm - 8:00 pm
Free with Park Fee
Ranger Olivia leads this picturesque hike to watch the sunset while also learning about saguaros along the way. We will see the sunset, saguaros, saguaro blossoms, and maybe some evening critters as well. You may bring your blacklight and regular flashlight to look for evening critters(optional). This hike will be about 2 miles on the Waddell trail, which is an easy rated trail where the terrain is rocky and uneven in spots. Wear closed-toe shoes and bring plenty of water. Restrooms are available at the trailhead.
