Saguaro National Park (East & West)

If there is any one icon that depicts Arizona and Tucson in particular, it likely would be the saguaro (pronounced "sah-war-o"). This magnificent giant exists only in the amazing Sonoran Desert region covering the southern part of New Mexico, Arizona, California and northern Mexico.

Did you know they are at least 70 years old before they get their first arm? They are like gigantic straws and in some seasons have been known to hold up to a ton of water.

Here in Tucson, we are blessed with two large areas of saguaro forest, one on either side of town. The Saguaro National Park West has been left pretty much wild and is dramatic to see. The Saguaro National Park East has been set up as a visitor’s area with a terrific center where you can learn about the life of the saguaro as well as other plants found in the area. There is also a wonderful drive, bike ride or walk you can take that meanders through beautiful desert scenery. The small cost is truly worth the money.

One of our former agents was married to the ranger who instituted the east set up so we feel akin to it. They have since transferred to the Padre Islands and are now retired. Good people and dedicated to preserving our natural wonders.
