Ranger Kevin T.’s enthusiasm for what he does, i.e., leading a night hike really shines. He looked for ways to add to an already fun night. It was late and he stayed to answer our questions. Extremely knowledgeable, gracious and watching out for the safety of all us on the hike. Park was clean and well maintained. The ladies at the entry booth were welcoming and helpful. Look forward to returning for hiking and to see the Nature Center.

Cave Creek Regional Park has quickly become one of our absolute favorite outdoor destinations in the northern region. Spanning a vast expanse, this park offers an impressive variety of trails suitable for all skill levels, ranging from leisurely strolls to challenging treks. Whether you're an avid hiker, mountain biker, or trail runner, this park is a haven for outdoor enthusiasts. Open year-round, the park's natural beauty captivates visitors in every season. One of our personal favorites is the Go John Trail, which meanders through the rugged and awe-inspiring Sonoran Desert. Along the way, you'll encounter numerous scenic vistas that beckon you to pause and soak in the breathtaking desert landscape. The pinnacle of the trail, the summit, offers a rewarding conclusion to your journey. As you reach the peak, you're greeted with panoramic views that stretch across the expansive desert, serving as a majestic reminder of nature's grandeur. It's a truly unforgettable experience that makes every step of the hike worthwhile.

Cave Creek was very hot by early June 2024 (102 F) with rattlesnakes on the trail. But it was peaceful, quiet, and filled with beautiful desert scenery

$7 to enter the park, but worth every penny. The gate attendant gave me a detailed, useful, and informative map of the park printed on both sides of a regular piece of printer paper. Lots of paved parking at the trailhead. Fantastic bathrooms with flushing toilets, real sinks with soap, electric hand dryers, and electric lighting at the trailhead. The men's room I used was very clean and smelled like cleaning products at 4pm on a Sunday afternoon. There are very nice picnic areas if you want to sit and eat something before or after your hike. The trails I went on were very well maintained, very well marked, and not at all overgrown. There was no litter anywhere that I saw. I think the $7 pay wall may keep away some of rif raf that likes to leave toilet paper and food wrappers on the trail (you know who you are) and generally keeps the parking and trails from getting overcrowded. You can easily navigate around all the trails in the park with just the map they give you and the trail signs. I didn't see anywhere that the trail became feint, no way finding skills required. The particular hike I did was a nice back and forth mix of uphill and downhill. A large part of the trail was fairly smooth, not very rocky and not a lot of high steps. There were a few rocky spots on the north side of the loop, but even those were pretty mild. I would classify this as pretty easy hike if the distance fine for you. Huge shout out to the people who manage and work at the park! They're doing a great job and clearly care about their work.

Great spot for a family weekend picnic. We bring snacks and games and hang out under the Ramada at the playground. The playground has fun desert theming and the restroom is right there as well. You've got beautiful desert views and can watch the trail riders go by. Also we always love checking out the shop and a few creatures inside. Can't wait for kids to be old enough for a trail ride here. There is an entrance fee per car to enter the park
