Beautiful outdoor activity to see a lot of rare cacti, succulents, and other desert plants. One of Brandon and Steven's Favorite places to take friends and family visiting from out of town.
Great for shopping and getting some Arizona gifts to take home! Lots of good food and drink places to check out as well! Great night life as well!
Great if you've come into town with kids!
Are you into hiking or just want to experience the Phoenix metro from a nature perspective? Camelback mountain is one of the most popular hikes in the valley but there are plenty of other ones to try with varying difficulty levels.
Sedona is about an hour and a half drive from the north metro but worth the drive to view the famous red rocks and do a pink jeep tour. There are plenty of other jeep tours but this one is great! If you just want to see the views and enjoy Sedona they have plenty of fun shops and vortexes for you to meditate!
