Sightseeing
Wonderful place to take the kids as it is a huge park and right next to the zoo. The zoo is great for strolling through to watch the elephants and let the kids run around. At the park we love walking through the Rose Garden (there is a dog park next to it). We also enjoy all the playground equipment and duck watching at the big pond.

Colina Tumamoc
Great hiking trail. Very popular with locals.
Gates pass is a fun drive as it is a long winding road. The kids love the "tickles" over some of the hills. There are also several paths to walk/hike. Beautiful sunsets too.

Mt Lemmon is another popular place to visit. Lots of trails if you're a hiker. Our favorite place to visit during the Summer is Rose Canyon Lake. And a must stop in the Winter is "The Cookie House" at the top of the mountain (although cookies are great anytime). ;)

Another fun park to spend time with the kids. There is access to the Rillito River path which is great for walking, running, or bicycling. There is also a splash pad during the Summer.

Museum
Super fun for our children. Lots of hands-on activities, science and art-related fun. Advance tickets are suggested as they are limiting guests for safety due to COVID.
