Catalina State Park
Catalina State Park, State park in Pima and Pinal Counties, Arizona.
The park extends over 5,500 acres within the Santa Catalina Mountains, featuring desert vegetation, mountain peaks, and an interconnected network of trails.
The park, established in 1974, contains archaeological sites that indicate settlement by Native American communities dating back several thousand years.
The local Native American tribes utilized the park's natural resources and left evidence of settlements, visible through the remains of ancient dwellings and artifacts.
Visitors can access multiple camping areas, eight trails of varying difficulty levels, and designated spaces for horseback riding throughout the year.
The park serves as a natural corridor for wildlife migration between the Santa Catalina Mountains and the Tortolita Mountains across Oracle Road.
