Maricopa County Parks and Recreation: Saguaros in Sunset

Join Ranger Olivia for a hike to see and learn about the stunning saguaros during sunset. Ranger Olivia leads this picturesque hike to watch the sun set while also learning about saguaros along the way. We will see the sunset, saguaros, and maybe some evening critters as well. You may bring your blacklight and regular flashlight to look for evening critters(optional). This hike will begin along a portion of Pemberton trail where we will then move onto Shallmo Wash trail to an out and back of about 2 miles. The terrain is rated easy and ranges from even and smooth with small to medium rocks underfoot. Wear closed-toe shoes and bring plenty of water. Restrooms and water are available at the Trailhead.
