Great short but very steep hike up a hill in the middle of Tempe. It’s a great way to start the day or end it - by getting your heart rate up before a big meal. Great views of the city from the top, so if you’re hesitate, you have to do it. You won’t be disappointed you did. Be sure to bring water if you decide to make the hike in the middle of the day as it can get hot, especially as there’s no shade anywhere along the short route up.
Hayden Butte Trail is right beside the Arizona State University stadium. It looks small, but it gives you a good walk up to the top. It is not too difficult and you will enjoy all the views from both city side and the river side. Many spots to take photos with. The trail is not crowded. It is very convenient if you visit ASU for any reasons. Then walk down to Tempe Downtown to find some to eat.
Good place for a short hike. This place has a bit of history which many people fail to notice. Watch out for the native american petroglyphs on the rocks on your way up. Good place to watch sunset and sunrise with good view of Tempe.
