Arizona: Phoenix Area Day Hiking Trips

"Come on boys! The way you're lollygaggin' around here with them picks and them shovels, you'd think it was a hundert an' twenty degree. Can't be more than a hundert an' fourteen." - Lyle (Blazing Saddles)

It's is not always a hundert an' fourteen here!  Just ask all our winter visitors.  The Phoenix area is perfect for hiking from the Fall to Spring with temperatures in the seventies and eighties.  You might be surprised what you can do in just one day in Arizona: scale a mountain, overlook a sprawling cityscape or even venture into ancient ruins. Phoenix, Arizona is ripe with hiking adventure, and we've mapped it all out - form our backyards to the backwoods. Choose from one of our Phoenix or Scottsdale, AZ hiking day trips or let us help you choose the best Arizona day hike for you.

Day hiking provides a snapshot of some of Arizona's most sought-after destinations like Grand Canyon or the Superstition Mountains. Or, explore the McDowell Mountains by hiking the McDowell Sonoran Preserve in Scottsdale for an easy escape from the bustling city to an amazing wilderness experience.  We can take you through the touristy hotspots or primitive hiking trails in Phoenix, Scottsdale or Mesa known to few - but well worth the hike.
