Parks & Nature
One of the most popular hikes is Camelback Mountain. At a certain angle the mountain actually looks like a Camel. I would avoid during the summer. Bring a camel-pack filled with water for this one, you'll need it. No special climbing gear needed for this trail, but it is a tough one. Great views at the top!

Just a quick walk to the intersection of 68th St & Indian School Rd is an entrance to the Arizona Canal trail. You will find people both walking the trail and riding bikes. Nice to get some fresh air weather jogging or walking. Take the trail East to get into the shops and restaurants in what we call the Southbridge area and Waterfront area. If you take the trail heading West you'll see Arizona Falls which is interesting and keep going to OHSO for lunch and a beer.

Entertainment & Activities
Topgolf is a little farther away from the condo, you'll definitely need an Uber for this one but it's a lot of fun. Leave your golf clubs at home, they provide them. You'll have a video scoreboard much like bowling and have targets from your spot on the driving range. There is a bar here as well, and makes for a really fun time.
