Cienega Creek is an exquisite riparian area southeast of Tucson, just minutes from Interstate 10. Join one of the Southwest’s premier naturalists, Pinau Merlin, on this morning nature walk to discover this jewel in the desert, with its year-round water, gallery forest, rich habitat and wildlife diversity. We will see native fish in the creek, southwestern willow-flycatchers, and other critters and wildlife signs expertly interpreted by Pinau. This completely undeveloped area is a well-kept secret around the Tucson area and receives few visitors. The walk is of moderate difficulty as there are few developed trails, but the pace is leisurely, with plenty of nature to encounter along the way. Bring a sack lunch to enjoy by the creek. Water and snacks are included. Limit 15.
