Description
Head out Wickenburg way for this popular seasonal outing featuring cowboy naturalist Richard Fredrickson of the famed Rancho de los Caballeros guest ranch in Wickenburg. This tour begins with a moderately difficult walk in the desert, treating nature lovers to a fabulous array of Sonoran Desert upland plant and animal species, local history, storytelling and ecology. The walk is loaded with nature interpretation and hands-on demonstrations, followed by a delicious lunch at the ranch's historic cowboy-inspired dining room. This loop walk is approximately 1 1/2 miles long with minimal elevation change but does have some short sections of loose rocks and gravel. Lunch and gratuities are included. Transportation from the Garden departs at 8:00 a.m. and returns at 4 p.m.
