Ranger Olivia leads this picturesque hike to watch the sun set while also learning about saguaros along the way. We will see the sunset, saguaros, saguaro blossoms, and maybe some evening critters as well. You may bring your blacklight and regular flashlight to look for evening critters(optional). This hike will start along Littleleaf trail and will connect to Goldmine trail to be a loop of about 1.5 miles. The terrain is rated easy/moderate and ranges from even and smooth with small to medium rocks underfoot. Wear closed-toe shoes and bring plenty of water. Restrooms and water are available at the Nature Center.
