Maricopa County Parks and Recreation: Statehood Day Hike
February 14, 2025 @ 9:00 am - 11:30 am
Free with Park Fee
Hike with Ranger Nikki to give some Valentine’s love to Arizona on Statehood Day and learn about our beautiful Sonoran Desert.
Learn about some of the plants and animals in our desert on a hike with Ranger Nikki. Depending on winter rains, there may be signs of sprouting wildflowers that give a preview of things to come later in the season. We will also see a variety of cacti, trees, shrubs, mammals and birds that thrive in our extreme environment. The route follows San Tan, Hedgehog and Moonlight Trails for a 4.5 loop and is rated as easy to moderate, with terrain ranging from flat and level to uneven with small to medium rocks underfoot. Wear closed-toe shoes and bring water and snacks. Restrooms and water are available at the Nature Center.
MEETING LOCATION: Main trailhead picnic table
No registration required.
