Historical Tour of Agua Caliente Park
Enjoy a guided walking tour of the historic buildings and plantings to understand how the year-round presence of water from the spring influenced the ranching and farming activities on the property and how past residents changed the landscape.

Birding Walk at Agua Caliente Park
Take a casual stroll through the park and spot wetland birds, cardinals, thrashers, hummingbirds, songbirds and raptors nestled among the mesquites and palms. Discover why Agua Caliente Park is considered one of the premier birding spots in the Tucson area. Binoculars are available for use during the walk or bring your own.

How to Keep a Nature Journal
Nature journaling has become a popular way for people to explore the natural world while cultivating their own creative abilities. Learn to use writing and sketching to record your reflections about the Sonoran Desert around you. Natural journaling is best done in an outdoor setting – at your facility or at Agua Caliente or Feliz Paseos Parks. Program requires 1 ½ to 2 hours.

Nature Walk at Feliz Paseos Park
Enjoy a naturalist guided tour through Feliz Paseos Park, in the foothills of the Tucson Mountains. The densely vegetated washes and saguaro-studded hillsides offer some of the best wildlife viewing in the Tucson area. The park’s paved and gravel paths are wheelchair accessible.
