First Day Hike at Oracle State Park

Oracle State Park

January 1, 2026   10 a.m.

Come and decompress from all the holiday hustle and bustle with scenic views, crisp clean air, and desert landscapes. Oracle State Park will be doing a ranger-led hike along the beautiful Nature Trail Loop. This trail is approximately 1.5 miles long this trail ranges from easy to moderate, and has some elevation changes along the way. On the trail you will encounter rocks, loose sand, and gravel. There are some steep and narrow inclines and declines with steps along the way as well. 

We will make some stops along the way to take in the scenic views, listen and look for wildlife along the trail and at the parks wildlife blind and watering hole, and enjoy the peace and quiet Oracle State Park has to offer. Make sure to bring a camera, binoculars, plenty of water, sunscreen, a hat, appropriate clothing, and shoes. We will start at the Historical Kannally Ranch House patio and make our way to the Nature Trail.  

As part of the celebration of America's 250th anniversary, all First Day Hikes will be offered with no fee!
