Tips

Piestewa Peak is the second highest peak in the Phoenix Mountains at 2,600 feet. A climb at sunset is worthwhile, because you get a great view of the illuminated city of Phoenix and the surrounding landscape.

For the ascent you should take at least one hour, because over 1.2 miles about 1,100 feet of altitude must be climbed over a very rocky path. The parking lot is still well filled at this time of day.

At 2,608 feet, Piestewa Peak is the second highest peak in the Phoenix Mountains Preserve. The trail up to the summit is steep, rocky, and entirely exposed to the elements, but it's also one of the most popular trails in all of Phoenix. You get completely unobstructed views of the city and surrounding mountains from this high point.
