Excellent place to visit!! We visited the trail in late December and had a great time with the family. This trail offers great views, easy trail options, along with fantastic volunteers to point you in the right direction. On site facilities offer filtered water, bathrooms, and plenty of information to help you get where you want to go. We even saw a road runner on our walk back from Saguaro loop, the kids loved it!
Went up to Gateway Point. Beautiful view of 4 peaks and nice views and stopping points along the way. This is a rigorous hike, but you can turn around at any point. You will want good shoes with good traction. Amazing Arizona hike.
Awesome trail that is very family friendly and accessible! Highly recommend you check it out if you are just visiting or live nearby. The people working there are super friendly and helpful. Do yourself a favor and stop by!
