Parks & Nature

Our favorite hiking trail and the closest one to the house. The trail is 4 miles long and is not as strenuous as other trails. You can go all the way or cut it short at the first peak and turn around. It has great views of some of North Scottsdale's most iconic homes, golf courses and mountain scenery. After hiking go to The General Store for breakfast. It's only known by locals, is located inside an old Texaco Gas Station. The breakfast is very good.

The iconic Camelback Mountain is by far the most popular hiking trail in town. To get to the top is not easy though and only for avid hikers or if you're conditioned for strenuous hikes. However, the hike to the first "peak" is not that difficult and many guest are satisfied with that. If you are able to make it to the top the views and serenity is like no other. Take plenty of water and watch out of rattlesnakes.

Sightseeing

Sedona is a magical place with the most interesting red rock formations. A day trip here is a must if you have the time. Drive up, and especially down highway 89A. The views are better on the drive down. Pink Jeep Tours are also a blast. Or hike one of the many trails. My favorite hiking trail includes "Devils Bridge". The best place to have lunch or a cocktail is at The Enchantment Resort. However, it's not the type of place to go to lunch after a hike or in hiking clothes.
