Introduction Details
When most people picture Arizona, they imagine a desolate desert landscape with miles of nothingness stretching as far as the eye can see (except for the occasional canyon or cactus). And while sprawling deserts do make up a large part of Arizona’s environment, there’s plenty more to discover for those to crave a bit of adventure. This state is a living museum of natural wonder, with mountains, forests, volcanos, and even waterfalls, which provides the perfect backdrop for various outdoor activities. You can spend the day hiking along the brim of a canyon, cycling up the side of a mountain, or enjoying a leisurely drive through the historic Navajo nation. There are endless opportunities for excitement and adventure waiting for you in Arizona.
