Review:
Saguaro National Park was developed as an area to protect the giant Saguaro cactus. These large desert plants have become symbols of the American West, and here they can be viewed in the wild. The park also offers miles of hiking trails through the desert landscape and up into the high mountain elevations. Camping at remote sites is accessible only by foot and is available on a first-come, first-served basis. The park also offers special nighttime events and “Art in the Park” workshops with the park’s artist in residence. The park is open 365 days per year although the visitors’ center is closed on Christmas Day.
