Arizona Falls

Arizona Falls

4.4 stars

Water drops 20 feet about an arm's length from where your kid is standing, and it is loud enough that they have to raise their voice to be heard over

3 to 10 is the sweet spot. Little kids come for the roar and the mist, and grade schoolers are old enough to follow the actual story here, which is that this drop in the canal made the first electricity in Phoenix. Toddlers enjoy it but need a hand held the entire time, because the canal runs fast and open right alongside the walkway. Teens will give you about ten minutes unless you make it part of a longer bike ride on the canal path.FreeOutdoorZero for the visit itself
