Arizona State Parks

Arizona State Parks and Trails has partnered with Black Folks Camp Too, an award-winning company whose mission is to increase participation in the outdoor industry by making it easier, more interesting and more fun to get outdoors.

New Off Highway Vehicle trailhead is under construction at River Island State Park. With a projected completion date of spring 2025, the new trailhead and staging area will provide riders with a safe space to prepare their vehicles to hit the trail, prevent congestion at the trailhead, and provide access to a variety of desert area trails.

When the weather cools down, Sonoran Desert hiking heats up! Arizona is home to amazing trails across the state, and there’s no better time to explore than during the cooler fall and winter months.
