Saguaro National Park, Tucson, Arizona - Sonoran Desert Preserve
Saguaro National Park is a "Must Visit"

From Elizabeth R. Rose, About.com

See More About:
Saguaro National Park is home to some of the most majestic Saguaro Cacti I have ever seen. Add to that the beautiful mountains, hiking trails and well-stocked Visitor's Center and you have a "must visit" place in Arizona. You can take a leisurely drive and see the mountains and cacti. Or, with over 150 miles of hiking trails, ranging from flat and easy strolls in the Sonoran Desert to steep and rugged hikes into the Rincon Mountains, visitors of every ability have a place to get out of the car and explore. This photo gallery follows a hiking group as they explore some of the easier trails on the desert floor.
