Parks & Nature

One of our very favorite places-always a nice place for a deer-spotting drive, quiet picnic, or bird-watching (Hummingbirds/Elegant Trogon) butterflies and photography. Several scenic trails, from beginner to expert! Walking, jogging, trail-running - all good; even along the creek. Stunning sunset photography opportunities from Proctor Parking Lot. Stargazing is optimal here (world-renown Whipple Observatory at Mt Hopkins is nearby) Madera Canyon Giftshop has seating to watch the resident turkeys feed under the birdfeeders --and enjoy an ice cream! Free parking for Giftshop; other areas: $8 parking or $20 annual pass & available at the Lodge. Some park passes also accepted.
