Papago Park

With its otherworldly sandstone buttes, Papago Park has graced the city of Phoenix park system since 1959. Papago’s trails are generally easy treks with little elevation gain making it a great place for a family hike or to hone your mountain biking skills. The park is open from 5 a.m. to 11 p.m.
