Pantano River Park

Highlight • Trail

The Pantano River Park is right on the Pantano Wash. This small, but pretty park in Tucson is a great place to start or end your ride along the Chuck Huckleberry Loop Trail because there is a fairly large parking lot right off the trail.

Highlight • Natural Monument

Javelina Rocks is a hidden gem located in Saguaro National Park. The site is along the eight-mile Cactus Forest Drive, between the six and seven-mile markers. Javelina Rocks features unique rock formations and short hiking trails that wind around saguaros, cholla cacti, and wildflowers. The rocks, which are made of Catalina gneiss, are named after javelinas that sometimes shelter here.
