About this program

Half of the park is after dark! Join a ranger in the evening hours as night-prowling creatures begin to emerge. This program meets at the Rincon Mountain Visitor Center. After a short ranger presentation, you'll hop into your car and follow the ranger out to a trail for a 2 mile hike to explore the sights and sounds of the Sonoran desert at night. We recommend bringing your own flashlight, especially red lights or black lights!
