Escape to the High Country: Wildflowers, Woods, and Natural Wonders Hikes
As the Valley heats up, take advantage of Arizona’s higher–and certainly cooler–elevations to escape the heat and experience the beautiful summer seasons of Flagstaff, Payson and Sedona areas. These hikes are intended to show you a different side of Arizona beyond our lower Sonoran Desert home and raise awareness for the unique plant and animal adaptations and ecological relationships just a short drive away. Create your own weekend getaways around these fun hikes that will feature fantastic summer wildflowers, cool forests and breathtaking sights. Interpretation and hands-on demonstrations will be provided by naturalist Eric Garton of the Garden’s education department and guest experts. Group sizes are limited to 10 hikers to ensure a personalized experience. Hikes vary in length and difficulty. Keep in mind hikes with the Garden are intended for enjoyment and education throughout, which means many stops along the way to learn about the world around you (and to catch your breath!).
