A short window of time is opening right before us, the time for perfect weather. This is the time to head out for a hike, or maybe just a relaxing nature walk, through some picturesque scenery. It’s good for your soul. Arizona has some magnificent parks and preserves. Whether you want to reserve campground space for a weekend getaway, plan a day trip, or simply head to one of the Valley’s many nature trails for a quick jaunt, we’re here to help. Go somewhere. See something. Do it soon before it gets too hot and going outside means facing the flesh-burning Phoenix summer.
