Native Plant Walks at Catalina State Park
February 19 @ 8:00 am - 5:00 pm
Join an Arizona Native Plant Society guided tour through the Upland Desert and Riparian plant communities along the Canyon Loop trail. The desert on a February morning is a great to learn about key desert plants, including trees, grasses, and cacti. We will see the first surge of Spring growth and flowering. Besides the plants, we will learn about geology and critters great and small. Meet at the trailhead near the cactus tile mosaic.
This program lasts approximately 3 hours. The program is free but park entry fees apply.
