Experienced hikers will appreciate the beauty of this hike in Papago Park. Located on Camelback Mountain, which at 2700 feet, is the highest point in Phoenix. This popular trail is well maintained and offers a close-up view of the desert. This trail runs just over one mile and offers several areas of challenge. Note that local rescues have become commonplace among hikers who over-estimate their abilities. For those inclined to a less arduous path, try the one-mile hike at nearby Squaw Peak.
