4.7 (7,427)A short climb in Papago Park leads to a wind-carved sandstone chamber framing desert sunsets and the Phoenix skyline.
Description
A short flight of stairs and a gravel trail lead up a soft sandstone formation shaped by millions of years of erosion into large wind-blown cavities. Inside, the chamber acts as a natural frame overlooking surrounding lagoons, desert flora, and the distant downtown skyline. Across the Valley, the landmark is known for pairing an easy approach with wide-open sunset views over the Phoenix area.
