Located north of Tucson, these beautiful mountains offer a spectacular view. Imagine experiencing all four seasons in a single day: hiking through the desert at dawn, sunbathing along the banks of Sabino Creek at mid-morning, picnicking among wildflowers for lunch, and snowboarding at Ski Valley in the afternoon. The Mountains offers rugged canyons, brilliant sunsets, 600 vertebrate species -- including black bear, mule deer, desert bighorn sheep, coati mundi, and javelinas. The area offers 230 miles of trails available for hiking, horseback riding, and mountain biking, with numerous campgrounds and picnic areas accessible from the paved Sky Island Scenic Byway. The Santa Catalina Mountains offer a myriad of year-round recreational opportunities.
