Maricopa County Parks and Recreation: Plant Hike
August 23, 2025 @ 7:00 am - 9:00 am
Free with Park Fee
Enjoy a guided nature hike along one of our trails to see all the beauty the desert plants have to offer. We will be along the North trail which is mostly flat with some uneven/rocky surfaces so please wear closed toed shoes. We will do a loop of about 3 miles. Bring any questions you have about the plants that reside in the desert. Restrooms are available near the trailhead, and please be sure to bring plenty of water.
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 before coming to the park.
MEETING LOCATION: North Trailhead. Be aware that it will take an ADDITIONAL 5-10 minutes to get to the meeting location AFTER entering the park’s entry booth.
