Pima County Parks and Recreation: Stargazing Tucson Mountain Park

Join us to explore the wonder and unfold the mysteries of the cosmos. Tucson Amateur Astronomy Association volunteers provide an introduction to the night sky and set up telescopes for celestial viewing. Weather permitting. DIRECTIONS: Juan Santa Cruz Picnic Area; 2000 N Kinney Rd. 85743 From Tucson, take Speedway Blvd west. Speedway Blvd becomes Gates Pass Road west of Silverbell Road. Continue west on Gates Pass Road over the mountain pass then turn right at Kinney Road toward the Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum. The picnic area is on the left; if you pass the Desert Museum, you have gone too far.
