Review:
Saguaro National Park (video) is divided into two separate (and different) areas, one to the west of Tucson and the other to the east of the city. Each area has its own Visitor’s Center and both are easily accessible from downtown Tucson. Both districts offer wonderful opportunities for outdoor recreational activities and hiking is especially popular, with over 165 miles of trails available. Wilderness hiking, backcountry camping, scenic drives, mountain biking and horse-back riding are other popular park activities. Each of the Visitor’s Centers has a cactus garden to admire and both parts of the park offer Junior Ranger Programs to develop a love and appreciation of nature in younger visitors.
