"The wild west is alive and well in southern Arizona. Saguaro National Park is best-known for its symbolic saguaro cacti. You know the ones with two-pronged arms you see in all those John Wayne films? That’s the saguaro. Even though the saguaro is the emblem of the American desert, saguaro cacti are only found in small parts of the country. Fortunately, this 71,000-acre stretch of desert serves as their sanctuary. Saguaro National Park is divided into two sections: The Tucson Mountain District and Rincon Mountain District. Between the two districts, there are more than 165 miles of hiking trails, including part of a beloved National Scenic Trail, a large petroglyph site, a cactus garden, and of course, epic desert sunsets are offered daily, free of charge. Despite the heat, over 1 million people spent time hiking in the Sonoran Desert in Saguaro National Park last year. There are no accommodations or facilities in the park, so most visitors stay in nearby Tucson. Don't forget to pack extra water!"
