Arizona

Whether you are a full time resident or just a visitor, hiking in Arizona is a lot of fun. Pinnacle Peak Mountain was originally part of the Arizona State Trust Land, owned by the State of Arizona. The mountain’s elevation is around 3,170 feet. Pinnacle Peak park is now part of the Scottsdale Park Department. It is a terrific place for people of all ages. Pinnacle Peak Mountain and Park is a 150-acre natural preserve located in North Scottsdale, Arizona. Besides some of the best views of the Valley, moderate-level hiking and rock climbing is available. It’s a very well run park and it has a four-mile hiking and biking trail around the mountain peak. Climbing is allowed during daylight hours only.

It you’re looking for something to do outside on a fall, winter or spring weekend, try a hike at Pinnacle Peak Park. Be on the lookout for rattlesnakes and other creatures at the park. Summer is not a very enjoyable time because of the harshness of the desert and heat. When planning your hike please remember to wear hiking boots and keep hydrated. Don’t hike alone. Pinnacle Peak Park is a treasure to the Scottsdale community and visitors alike.
