PebbleCreek Hiking Club Hikes Buckeye’s Skyline Park
Dana Thomas
A dozen hikers enjoyed the fall temperatures on seven miles of trails in Buckeye’s Skyline Park. The PebbleCreek Hiking Club has 11 hikes per week at four levels of distance, elevation, and pace. Hiking is great exercise! See more at www.pchikers.org.

White Tank Mountain Park Hike
PebbleCreek is fortunate to have many great hiking areas nearby, including the White Tank Mountain Regional Park, the Estrella Mountain Regional Park, and Buckeye’s Skyline Park. While the Hiking Club hikes all over Arizona (see pchikers.org), members feel particularly at home in these familiar parks. A group of 18 hikers recently completed a loop hike from the Nature Center at the White Tank Mountain Park.
