Maricopa County Parks and Recreation: Scorpion Hike Registration

October 1, 2025 @ 6:00 pm - 8:30 pm

Free with Park Fee
Join Ranger Derik on an adventurous hike through the park at night in search of nocturnal creatures.  

The hike will cover 3 miles along the North Loop trail on sandy mostly level trail. Hikers should have at least a liter of water with them as well as a flashlight (with a full charge or extra batteries). If you have blacklights feel free to bring them along to help the ranger search for scorpions once the sun goes down. Bathrooms can be found just before the trailhead parking area. There is no water at the trailhead so make sure you bring plenty with you. Before the hike check the weather and make sure you have close toed protective/ supportive shoes.
