From awe-inspiring canyons to vast deserts and majestic buttes, everything about the landscape in Arizona tells a story of moving wind and water that continually shapes the terrain. It's a living sculpture millions of years in the making. The territory's dynamic geological history is revealed in layers of sedimentary rock — a mosaic of colors and textures forming a rich and varied desertscape. From the stark beauty of the Sonoran Desert peppered with stately saguaros to its verdant northern valleys, the Grand Canyon state will leave you breathless.
Dubbed The Valley of the Sun, the Phoenix metropolitan area that Peoria belongs to is in close proximity to Arizona's many natural wonders and areas of spectacular beauty and scope. Go on a hiking exploration through the red rocks of Sedona, past the Ponderosa pines surrounding Flagstaff and along the rim of the majestic Grand Canyon. Get ready for rafting on the Verde or Salt Rivers.
