The American Southwest has some of the most stunning landscapes on the continent with its colorful mountains, deep valleys, and wide skies as far as the eye can see. If you’re thinking about an outdoor activity that is interesting, healthy, and rewarding, hiking is for you. Arizona is one of the states with the most diversity in destinations; to the south, places like Madera and Sabino Canyon offer proximity without sacrificing the scenery that makes this activity the favorite pastime of countless people. However, if you’re willing to take a longer trip, there is no destination that can beat the grandeur of the Grand Canyon to the north.
Regardless of where you go, hiking is an exceptional way to disconnect from the city and enjoy nature. Don’t forget to thoroughly plan your trip ahead of time, bring lots of water, and a lunch or snack to enjoy at the summit.
