Welcome!
If you're new to the club, please attend one of our meetings before going on our hikes!
Hello, and welcome to Ramblers, the University of
Arizona hiking club!
Before attending our meetings, you can read our FAQ and
sign up for our mailing list, the best way to
keep informed about upcoming hikes.
Tucson is truly a hiker's paradise!
Here, we are surrounded with
unique hiking opportunities to suit all seasons. The imposing granite
faces north of campus are the Santa Catalinas and include scenic Sabino
Canyon and Mount Lemmon, a favorite getaway from the summer heat. The
rugged Rincons lie looming in the east. The gentle Tucson range west of
campus is a good place to watch the sunset on summer evenings. The Santa Ritas, further south, include
Mount Wrightson, which at 9453 feet is the highest point near Tucson.
Each of these major ranges is less than an hour's drive from campus.
We also make longer trips to places outside Tucson, such as the
Chiricahuas, Pinacate preserve in Mexico, and the Grand Canyon.
