Enjoy this easy walk through our Sonoran Desert in the glow of moonlight. We will also be on the lookout for nocturnal critters such as scorpions, bats, owls, tarantulas and more. The route follows Blevins and NoSo Trails to make a 2-mile loop. The terrain ranges from level and smooth to portions that are uneven with small to medium rocks underfoot. Bring your blacklight and a regular flashlight. No pets, please. Wear closed-toe shoes and bring plenty of water. Restrooms and water are available at the Trailhead. Please bring $7 exact cash for the self-pay station or your annual pass to display on your vehicle.
Please note: Summer programs may be canceled on short notice due to severe weather, including extreme heat events. The Maricopa County Parks website is the best resource for verifying the program’s current status, so please check the program listing prior to departing for your scheduled program.
