Marana

With a history of farming and ranching, today Marana is known for its beautiful desert setting, amazing climate, and unparalleled recreational opportunities. The mild weather allows for year-round outdoor activities from hiking, cycling, and golf, to relaxing poolside. We host several big events throughout the year, including the local Cotton Festival in October. Marana is also home to the luxurious five star, AAA Five Diamond Award winning Ritz-Carlton, Dove Mountain resort and the brand new Tucson Premium Outlets, offering more than 360,000 square feet of shopping and dining.

A visit to Saguaro National Park is a must-see and will take your breath away. Thousands of saguaro cacti blanket the desert landscape as far as the eye can see, creating a veritable forest of cacti. The park offers miles of world-class hiking, scenic drives, wildlife viewing, and access to Native American and ancient cultural experiences, including ancient petroglyphs.
