Phoenix Zoo

There are lots of fun trails around the valley - little mountains throughout the city. This website gives you good info for trails close to us and further away. You can either click on the link below the photos (Wow! Where are these...) for illustrated help; or the link above the photo (The Weekend Warriors...) for more details on each AZ trail.
