    Tips

    March 16, 2019

    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.

      Climbing up to the sunrise is a great experience. Sometimes, but not always 🙂 Ken the Indian plays the morning greeting. Even at 5am you are not alone on the track
