SADDLEBROOKE HIKING CLUB
The SaddleBrooke Hiking Club has over 400 energetic, enthusiastic members whose passion is hiking the grand canyons, gentle hills and magnificent mountains of Southern Arizona. Although the club gathers a few times each year for potluck picnics, monthly social hours and trail work days the main activity and focus is hiking.
Membership in the club is open to all SaddleBrooke residents for $5 a year. If you are a resident, you must be a member to hike with the club, although you may hike one time without joining. Non-residents may join a hike as a guest on a space available basis when accompanied by a member. Hikes are led by club members who choose from the club's database of over 400 hikes or propose their own at the hiking guides meetings held every other month. Hikes are graded according to difficulty and vary from easy strolls to strenuous, challenging climbs.
