Maricopa County Parks and Recreation: Wind Cave Fitness Hike

August 9, 2024 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm

Free with Park Fee
Join ranger Derik on a strenuous uphill hike to Wind Cave and take in the views of the mountains as the sun sets and the city lights.  

We will hike the Wind Cave Trail with 800ft of elevation and at a distance of 3 miles it is rated as difficult. The trail is steep and rocky, so it is encouraged you bring proper footwear and if balance is an issue trekking poles are great to have. Please bring plenty of water and a snack for the top cave. Water and bathrooms are available at trailhead. Make sure to bring a headlamp or flashlight with extra batteries or a fresh charge.

MEETING LOCATION: Wind cave parking lot, next to the bathrooms, by the kiosk.

Limit 20 participants. To register, please call the Nature Center at (602) 506-2930 ext. 4 with your name, phone number and number of people attending. If you find you cannot attend a program after you have registered, please call the Nature Center ASAP so we may contact those on the waiting list. Registration for this program will close on 8/7/24.

Please note: Summer programs may be canceled on short notice due to severe weather, including extreme heat events. The Maricopa County Parks website is the best resource for verifying the program’s current status, so please check the program listing prior to departing for your scheduled program.
