"When I’m after the densest saguaro forest, I head west. The six-mile, gravel Bajada Loop Drive is open to bikes and threads classic desert scenery, Signal Hill Trail is short and accessible with a huge payoff at Hohokam petroglyph-covered boulders dating to the 13th century, and the Sendero Esperanza Trail offers a moderate climb to a ridge with panoramic vistas or a continuation toward Wasson Peak, the highest point on this side of the park (expect roughly 3.4 to eight miles depending on how far you go)." - 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.
