Visitors traveling along I-10 between Phoenix and Tucson can’t miss the prominent 1,500-foot peak at Picacho Peak State Park. The trails are steep and challenging but take you through saguaros, chollas and ocotillos that dot the desert landscape. In the spring, you may see a magnificent abundance of wildflowers including gold poppies. An Annual Civil War Reenactment is held in March to commemorate the most significant battle in Arizona. Online camping reservations are available at azstateparks.com
