Great locations to Watch the Sunset near Phoenix Arizona

The desert sunset is a magical sight to behold in Arizona. As the sun sets, the skies get painted with fiery oranges, purples, and every shade in between. Whether you're visiting for a long or short stay, watching a spectacular Arizona sunset is a must.

There are several different locations where you can catch the sunset in Phoenix. Some of the best spots are located within the city, while others are a short drive outside the city.

Papago Park

Hole in the Rock is a popular hiking spot that offers breathtaking views of downtown Phoenix and the surrounding desert. You can hike up to the hole-in-the-rock formation to catch the golden hour sunrise or sunset. The park is open from 5 a.m. to 7 p.m. The parking lot is usually filled up before the park's closing time, so it's important to be early when planning a visit.
