Easy Hike Around Papago Park

About this event

Join us for an easy Saturday morning hike in Tempe. We are meeting at Evelyn Hallman Park which is easy to get to and has plenty of parking than previous spots we've tried.

We will be hiking around the outside of the zoo, up to the Governor Hunts Tomb for a quick photo op, then continue along the canal and around Evelyn Hallman Pond and back to our starting spot. Should be about one and half hours total time.

This hike is rated EASY however it is still a hike not a walk. This is an easy trail that will have minimal elevation gain with some nice vistas for photos.

DISTANCE: 3.0 miles roundtrip ELEVATION GAIN: 150 ft DURATION: 1.5 hours FACILITIES: None WEBSITE: Trailmap Directions : 290 E Marigold Ln · Tempe, AZ There is some light construction going on, but the park is still open.

Bring water and wear sunscreen. Regular tennis shoes are fine, but no open toed sandals. Leashed, well behaved dogs are fine
