Our Who I Am Foundation volunteers in #Phoenix will be doing another Family Hike and Trail Clean-Up (PHX)!
SATURDAY MORNING (FEBRUARY 3RD) we will be cleaning up the Holbert Trailhead on South Mountain in South Phoenix!
Difficulty: Difficult
Access: Start at the Park Main Entranced. Take the first left on to Phoenix South Mountain Park. From this road, proceed to Holbert Trailhead to continue onto Holbert Trail.
This trail offers a steady climb to the upper areas of South Mountain Park. Hike the extension trail that leads to Dobbins Lookout and be rewarded with a magnificent view of the valley below. The Holbert Trail also provides a route to connect with the National Trail just east of the T.V. Towers and west of Buena Vista Lookout.
Distance: 2.5 mi
Elevation Change: 1,100 ft.
Hiking is an excellent low-impact workout, and is an outdoor activity delivering benefits beyond scenic and fun.
Below are five reasons to hike with your kids:
1. Exercise.
2. Build self-confidence
3. Exposure to wildlife
4. Practice “Leave no trace”
A great opportunity to talk about why we do not leave our trash in the park, and what happens to the litter that is left behind.
5. Unplug together
We all know that kids spend a lot of time using digital media, and it is true for adults as well. Heading out for a family hike is a great way to take a break from your devices and connect with each other and the outdoors for a while instead.
Make sure you dress appropriately!!
