Mariposa Trail
Mariposa Trail offers a peaceful pocket of desert living with big Catalina Mountain views and an easygoing rhythm that makes daily life feel effortless. Set on the northwest side of the metro, it’s minutes from the galleries and gardens at Tohono Chul, a beloved urban oasis with rotating exhibits, shaded trails, and a lively bistro you’ll visit again and again. Cyclists and runners love quick access to The Chuck Huckelberry Loop, the region’s signature multiuse pathway maintained by Pima County that connects to miles of river parks across Tucson and beyond.
Weekends practically plan themselves. Tee up or book a spa day at the storied Omni Tucson National Resort, host to professional golf events and sunset dining with panoramic fairway views. Everyday conveniences are a snap, too: boutiques, coffee, and locally loved eateries cluster at historic Casas Adobes Plaza, while the larger retail and restaurant scene of nearby Oro Valley and Catalina Foothills adds upscale options without a long drive.
Families appreciate the strong foundation of Amphitheater Public Schools, with well-regarded elementary, middle, and high school options serving the area. Healthcare needs are covered by Northwest Medical Center’s comprehensive campus just up the road, and hiking day trips to Catalina State Park keep trail shoes in frequent rotation.
