Maricopa County Parks and Recreation: Creatures of the Night – Spooky Season Edition
Enjoy a roughly 1.5-mile walk on the Palm Lake, Mesquite Meander and Lions trails. We’ll make our way through a portion of the preserve in search of a wide range of spooky season critters, including snakes, scorpions, spiders, bats, bugs and more. Trails are rated easy, although thick sand is possible in some stretches. Please wear sturdy, closed-toe shoes and bring plenty of water and a flashlight and/or a black (UV) light. Restrooms are available near the parking area. NO pets, please.
