Things to do in Tucson!
Ventana Canyon Trailhead Ventana Canyon is one of the most beautiful canyons in the Santa Catalina front range, and one of the least visited. The main reason is that the trailhead is actually in the Loews Ventana Canyon Resort's employee parking lot! The route up Ventana Canyon leads to The Window, presenting memorable views of sheer canyon walls and a steadily broadening panorama along the way. As you climb, occasional pools and widening vistas provide reasons to stop, take a breather and look around. Read more.
Sabino Canyon If you consider yourself a novice hiker and are looking for a fun and easy way to get outdoors, Sabino Canyon is for you! Just minutes from Loews Ventana Canyon Resort, Sabino Canyon is an extremely popular recreation area for locals and visitors alike. Hop aboard the tram (which runs daily, every 30 minutes) and enjoy the 3.8-mile informational tour as it guides you through the canyon, with nine stops along the way where you can get out and enjoy the surroundings, including rest areas and picnic grounds. Locals recommend new visitors ride the tram to Stop 8, where you can get off and take a dip in the natural waterfalls before hiking back down to the Visitor's Center on foot. The best of both worlds!
