Maricopa County Parks and Recreation: Moonlight Hike

Join Ranger Kevin for an evening hike under the stars.

Join Ranger Kevin for an approximately 2-mile loop on the Blevins and Noso Trails. Trail segments are rated easy, with little elevation change over the course of the hike. We’ll enjoy the beauty of a quiet outdoor evening, walking through a desert landscape silvered by the moon and stars (weather permitting, of course). We won’t be setting any speed records here; this hike is all about taking our time and appreciating the natural world. Please wear sturdy, closed-toe shoes and bring plenty of water, along with flashlights and/or UV lights (we may be able to find some scorpions out and about). We’ll meet at the Trailhead Staging Area (west side of parking lot, by Blevins Trailhead). Bathrooms are available nearby. NO pets, please.

Note: Hike will only be cancelled in the event of active storms or poor trail conditions; we will not cancel for cloudy conditions.

Limit 20 participants. To register, please call the Usery Nature Center at (602) 506-2930 ext. 4. Please be sure you are registering for the Moonlight hike. 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 3/29/23.
