Elevation Gain: Leafly’s guide to the best high hikes in Arizona

Hannah MeadowsPublished on June 10, 2021
Arizona-sunset
The sun may be setting on cannabis prohibition in Arizona. Voters will decide on an adult-use legalization measure in November.

You can spend your day taking in the gorgeous views surrounding the famous Grand Canyon Skywalk, but it wouldn’t do Arizona’s other hiking spots—with their own natural beauty and charms—much justice. And to pair those stunning hikes with some mind-opening cannabis will have you flying high over the Copper State’s sandstone and arid desert plains.
