Are you adventurous at heart? Many outdoor activities are awaiting just a short drive from Mesa, AZ. Hop in your 2023 GMC Sierra 1500 and discover three treasures that make our expansive region a true outdoor playground.
1. Outdoor Fun at Papago Park
Papago Park is located at 625 N Galvin Pkwy in Phoenix (a 20-minute drive from Mesa). This park offers several activities that cater to many outdoor lovers. The park’s rocky terrain is ideal for hiking and mountain biking, with trails weaving around sandstone buttes and desert landscapes. If fishing is more your style, you should check out the Papago ponds, a great spot to throw in your line and potentially make a rewarding catch.
You’ll also find a wealth of attractions at this park. You can immerse yourself in the world of desert flora at the 140-acre Desert Botanical Garden or meet your favorite creatures up close at the Phoenix Zoo. You can also unleash your inner Robin Hood at the park’s archery range or engage in friendly competition at the sports complex.
2. Swimming at Eldorado Aquatic & Fitness Center
This haven for swimmers offers a heated 13-lane lap pool. In addition to the main pool, a separate diving well is available. For the younger or more playful aquatic adventurers, the center has a dedicated water play area that promises endless fun. Additionally, Eldorado provides a fully equipped gym for those who wish to complement their swimming with strength or cardio workouts.
And if you’re just starting on your swimming journey, we’re delighted to let you know that professional swimming lessons are available, and you’ll be in good hands as you learn to navigate the water. With the advanced navigation system of the new Sierra 1500, reaching the Eldorado Aquatic & Fitness Center at 2301 N Miller Rd in Scottsdale will be effortlessly simple.
3. Hitting the Links at Desert Canyon Golf Club
This 18-hole, par 71 golf course is located at 10440 N Indian Wells Dr in Fountain Hills. Since opening its doors in 1971, the club has been captivating golf enthusiasts with its breathtaking mountain views and impeccable course design. A distinctive feature of this golfing haven is its proximity to the famous 550-ft fountain that majestically erupts every hour on the hour.
The sight of this water spectacle against the backdrop of Arizona’s stunning skyline is something to behold. After a rewarding round of golf, head to The Grill restaurant at the club and order something to eat from the menu.
