Parks & Nature
The Phoenix area offers exceptional hiking! The views are stunning, especially at sunset.
Dogs are not allowed to travel with you on the hikes on any day with 100 degree or more temps, even if you carry them.
There are 2 trails - both challenging, but not overwhelming. Be sure to take lots of water, and don't attempt if more than 100 degrees out! Great place to go at sunrise!

Get back to nature!! This place is only slightly haunted ;)
Great day trip, bring lots of water and proper gear. I recommend bringing a phone with GPS, or at least have a fairly good sense of direction. Totally worth the drive!
