Outdoor Activities

This is the trail right by our condo complex. You will have private access to the trail. After 20 minutes of hiking, you will enter the national forest. Every turn you make, you get a different view of Catalina mountains, and a view of the city if you look back. Hiking early in the morning and listen to the birds chatting and singing non-stop!

A large part of this park was burned in 2020 known as Big Horn Fire. When we visited in 2021, we were happily surprised to see a lot of plants that had grown back. Beautiful wild flowers in the spring!
