From Scottsdale: Sonoran Desert & Tonto National Forest Trip – Tonto National Forest, Arizona

EXPERIENCE

Take a break from the streets of Scottsdale and get out of the city to discover the Sonoran Desert. Make your way to the Village at Pinnacle Peak to meet your friendly guide and group for the tour. Jump in the jeep and admire the picturesque Arizonan landscape as you head towards outside the city limits. Drive through the Sonoran Desert and stroll around in the arid landscape with growing cacti and distant mountain peaks. Enjoy historic factual information of the area as well as interesting factoids about this unique natural wonder. The Sonoran Desert is slowly being encroached by development. Soon there won’t be the ability to enjoy the serenity of this pristine desert environment. There may be a unique opportunity to see wildlife in an area inhabited by Deer, Javelina, Mountain Lions, Bobcat, Coyote, and many species of snakes and other reptiles. Your guide will make this a fun adventure for all ages.
