Guide to Visiting Saguaro National Park

"This western district contains the densest saguaro forest and is prized for classic cactus vistas and sunset overlooks; as Stephen Romero notes, each district has its “own unique beauty and advantages.” For sunset viewing Romero singles out the Javelina Rocks Overlook as particularly “spectacular,” and hikers who start on Sendero Esperanza can push up to ridge lines and toward the higher summit of Wasson Peak for panoramic views." - Lydia Mansel Lydia Mansel Lydia Mansel is a writer with more than eight years of experience editing and writing for both brands and online publications—with a particular focus on travel, fashion, and lifestyle.
