Parks & Nature
It is important to remember that the Phoenix mountain preserves are open, undeveloped desert areas. Please use care when heading out as hikers routinely encounter rocky terrain, rattlesnakes and other potential hazards native to the Sonoran Desert. Be sure to review the length and difficulty rating of each trail before you begin. A map and tips are included here. Take LOTS of water with you, regardless of season.
