Largely regarded as a Phoenix Point of Pride, the South Mountain Park Preserve isn’t just remarkably beautiful, it’s also the country’s largest municipal park and one of the largest urban parks in the entire world. The park has over 16,000 acres to its name as well as mile upon mile of multi-use trails, with even more still being developed. Guests to the park can enjoy all of the usual recreational activities available to outdoorsy adventurers including horseback riding, camping, and trails from easy to extremely difficult. Some of the must-see sites at the South Mountain Park Preserve include the Hohokam Rock Art and various plaques dedicated to the park’s history and education about the endemic wildlife in the area.
