Beautiful weather, diverse terrain, and four distinct mountain ranges make Tucson, Arizona a hiker's paradise.
Hiking around Tucson is easy since so many hiking trails are located just outside the Tucson city limits.
Anytime of the year is a good time to hike Tucson mountains and surounding areas.
Hiking Tucson does require some sensible rules when out in the desert.
