It’s time again for the Maricopa County Parks and Recreation annual 100-mile trail challenge! November 1 is the official start date so take the first steps to your goal on a guided hike with Ranger Nikki. The route is 5.5 miles on the easy to moderate terrain of San Tan and Hedgehog Trails but you can make it shorter or longer with your own route. Join us to learn about the park, make new friends and plan your next outings. Of course, if you are a biker or equestrian you are welcome to start your 200-mile journey with us and we’ll cheer you on.
