DESERT DISCOVERY NATURE TRAIL
Distance: 0.5 miles
Location: N Kinney Road
This is a self-guided nature trail, with lots of informative signs about the Saguaro cactus and the desert ecosystem. It’s easy to walk, educational, and great for all ages.
HIKE TO WASSEN PEAK
For a big adventure, hike to the top of Wassen Peak. It is roughly 8 miles round trip and is rated as strenuous, but you’ll get one of the best views of the park.
This was high on our list do to but we skipped it due to high temperatures in the park.
There are several ways to get to the top of Wassen Peak. The way we planned to do it was to start on the Sendero Esperanza Trail. This trail intersects the Hugh Norris Trail. Turn left on the Hugh Norris Trail (head east) and take this to the top of Wassen Peak.
There are numerous other hiking trails in Saguaro National Park to choose from but this is the one that stood out the most to us. You can see the full list here.
