Maricopa County Parks and Recreation Department's Vision and Mission:
Vision: Our vision is to connect people with nature through regional parks, trails and programs, inspire an appreciation for the Sonoran desert beauty and natural open spaces, and create life-long positive memories.
Mission: Our mission, through responsible stewardship, is to provide the quality parks, trails, programs, services and experiences that energize visitors and create life-long users and advocates.
About Us: From hiking on a barrier-free trail, to horseback riding along a creek,
Maricopa County Parks offer visitors the best of the Sonoran Desert. At
approximately 120,000 acres, Maricopa County is home to one of the largest regional
park system in the United States. All trails within the Maricopa County Park
System are for non-motorized use only. Ten parks in the system circle the
metropolitan area and all are within a 45-minute drive from downtown Phoenix.
