Full-day family park hop

Encanto Park morning, garden afternoon — an unhurried city day.

Let the kids run Encanto's playgrounds and lagoon paths in the morning shade, picnic under the trees, then drive 15 minutes to Papago for Hole-in-the-Rock and the botanical garden's family trail as it cools off.
