Tucson, Arizona

===Parks and recreation===
The city has more than 120 parks, from small and local to larger parks with ballfields, natural areas, lakes, 5 public golf courses, and [[Reid Park Zoo]]. "The Loop" is a popular system of walking/running/bicycling/horseback trails encircling the city primarily along washes, and it is usually well separated from traffic. Several scenic parks and points of interest are also nearby, including the [[Tucson Botanical Gardens]], [[Tohono Chul Park]], [[Saguaro National Park]], [[Sabino Canyon]], and [[Biosphere 2]] (just north of the city, near the town of [[Oracle, Arizona|Oracle]]).

[[Tumamoc Hill]] is an active research site maintained by the [[University of Arizona]] and [[Pima County, Arizona|Pima County]] that doubles as a popular walking/running trail. The paved trail on Tumamoc Hill is 1.5 miles uphill (3 miles full trip), divided into two parts. The lower half is a much more gradual slope compared to the steep upper half reaching a final elevation of 2,340&nbsp;ft where it overlooks most of the city of Tucson. The trail attracts around 1500 visits a day from various demographics of the Tucson area.<ref>{{Cite news|title=Walk the Hill {{!}} Desert Laboratory on Tumamoc Hill|url=https://tumamoc.arizona.edu/walk-hill|access-date=August 20, 2020|newspaper=Desert Laboratory on Tumamoc Hill|date=February 13, 2020}}</ref>

[[Mt. Lemmon]] is {{convert|25|mi|km}} north (by road) and over {{convert|6700|ft|m}} above Tucson in the Santa Catalina Mountains in the [[Coronado National Forest]]. Outdoor activities in the Catalinas include hiking, mountain biking, birding, rock climbing, picnicking, camping, swimming in mountain stream pools, sky rides at Ski Valley, fishing, and photography. In winter with enough snow, the sky ride converts back to skiing at the southernmost ski resort in the continental United States. [[Summerhaven, Arizona|Summerhaven]], a community near the top of Mt. Lemmon, is also a popular destination.

The [[League of American Bicyclists]] gave Tucson a gold rating for bicycle friendliness in late April 2007. Tucson hosts the largest perimeter cycling event in the United States. The ride, called "[[El Tour de Tucson]]", takes place each November on the Saturday before Thanksgiving. [[El Tour de Tucson]] produced and promoted by [[Perimeter Bicycling]] has had as many as 10,000 participants from all over the world. In 2019, ridership is expected to be 6,000 cyclists.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://kvoa.com/news/local-news/2019/11/22/el-tour-de-tucson-2019-what-to-know/|title=El Tour de Tucson 2019: What to know|date=November 22, 2019|website=KVOA.com|language=en-US|access-date=November 23, 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20191122205252/https://kvoa.com/news/local-news/2019/11/22/el-tour-de-tucson-2019-what-to-know/|archive-date=November 22, 2019|url-status=dead}}</ref> Tucson is one of only nine cities in the U.S. to receive a gold rating or higher for cycling friendliness from the [[League of American Bicyclists]].
