National Trails Day "Night Hike"

Join the Town of Marana Parks and Recreation Department for an exhilarating and free National Trails Day nighttime hike!

There are two versions: a mellow and a classic (more advanced) hike.

The Classic hike leading to the Wild Mustang Bench promises awe-inspiring views of the night sky and the enchanting cityscape. Covering approximately 3.5 miles and featuring a hard-fought 900 feet of elevation gain, this trail is ideal for those seeking a more challenging adventure.

Be prepared for some elevation gain on this classic night hike!

The Mellow hike leading to the Cush Cayton line shack is approximately 3 miles of relatively flat hiking on the Wild Burro Trail. This hike is ideal for families with children or those who enjoy a more mellow, night hike experience.
