Maricopa County Parks and Recreation: Night Hike

August 19, 2025 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm

Free with Park Fee
Spend the evening in the park on a guided hike with Ranger Derik. Watch as the sun sets and paints the desert in golden light and the stars and nocturnal species liven up the night.
The hike will be 3 miles on mostly sandy level trail with short sections of rock along the Blevins and Cat Peaks Loop trails. Along the hike you will get views of Pass Mountain and the Superstitions. Hikers should bring 2 liters of water and come to the hike pre-hydrated! Please make sure to bring a flashlight with you that has new batteries or is fully charged. Cell phone lights are not sufficient for hiking in the dark. Water and bathrooms can be found at the trailhead.

PLEASE NOTE: Outdoor summer programs may be canceled on short notice due to severe weather, including extreme heat events. The Maricopa County Parks website (www.maricopa.gov/parks) is the most accurate resource for verifying the program’s current status. Please check the program listing online or call the Nature Center before coming to the park.
