Great pull off spot for a short walk up to the rocks with a great view of the valley and walk through the cacti. Some good information boards in the parking lot. No trail markers, but all paths lead to the overlook.

We came upon this scenic spot while hiking. It was a really nice day with practically no clouds so we could see everything around. There’s a lot of cacti around and some rocks you can climb if you’re so inclined.

That was a very pretty rock formation in the Saquaro National Park. We are glad we stopped.

Excellent spot to explore on Cactus Forest Drive. About 2/3 of the way around there is a large pull off on the right. About 8 spots with room for an RV or two.

The rocks are visible for a while and easy to walk up to with lots of pathways from the parking lot. Amazing 360 views across the park and up the mountains. Such pretty colors in the layers. Lots of wildflowers and cactus to see, too.

Saw this recommended for catching the sunset. It was perfect for that and exploring the rocky area. There are little paths that wind around and you can see the area from all angles.

This is worth the stop. My husband climbed the rocks. The views were awesome. We were hoping to see Javelinas. No luck.

We were on a two week road trip through the southwest states and decided to check out Saguaro National Park since it was on our route. Javelina Rocks were great, easy to climb to find a better vantage point. Just be careful of the cactus!

What a great park. We drove through the loop and were able to show are kids all the different plantlife from the car. Great 8 mile loop. We only wish we had more time to do some of the hikes at the park.

Beautiful hiking ad picnic area. Less crowded than Gates Pass and more hiking trails. Amazing views, very little litter if any, polite employees and volunteers.

Incredible park for sunrise and making new friends. If I could live close by I’d be near here. Can’t wait to visit again

Went on a trip to several national parks and Saguaro was the one I was least excited about, but ended up being my favorite! Can't wait to go back.

This place is amazing! The park rangers are knowledgeable and friendly. They showed us where we could walk our dogs in the park and which areas were off-limits to them. We especially enjoyed meeting and talking to Ranger Lizzy! The park is kept in excellent condition and our memories of this amazing place will be remembered for a very long time.
