Prescott Hiking Trails

Prescott hiking trails are where I conduct my seminars as a photography guide in Prescott Arizona. Not to mention the fact that hiking Prescott Arizona is a blast, in and of itself! I am unsure how Prescott ranks in number of hiking trails, yet it must be quite high. There are trails everywhere. This blog post is not going to list all the hiking trails; I will leave that to those who map out the trails, here: Prescott Hiking Trails. Visit that page for a listing of the Prescott hiking trails.

Photography in Prescott Arizona is very popular as well due to the beautiful nature and surroundings. We have trails around the lakes, into the woods, mountain climbing, you name it. Listed below are just a few photographs I have taken while out and about hiking Prescott.   


The image above is from the Summer of 2018 at Goldwater lake. We had just moved to Prescott Arizona back in March, purchased a couple kayaks, and took to the water. What a blast! There are Prescott hiking trails around all the lakes. Hiking Prescott has been a lot of fun, with trails consisting of beginners to advanced. The people we meet on the trails have all been extremely friendly as well. Always helpful and informative. Even though I was raised here, I'm still impressed with the number of trails, as well as how well they are maintained. Kudos to you, the maintainers, whoever you are.  


The above picture is also of Goldwater lake. It's close to where we live, so it's the most visited lake. I also grew up in this area, so it's a personal favorite of mine as well. There are several Prescott hiking trails in and around the lake, as well as the Groom Creek area, south of Prescott. Hiking Prescott on a couple of these trails can be quite challenging. Visit the link above for a listing of trails in this area, if you enjoy the woods and hiking up the side of mountains. (My personal favorite.) 

 
This is an image from out on the Constellation trail, one of several Prescott hiking trails located north of Prescott, in the granite dells area. (Head out towards the airport and Chino Valley and you will find this area, including several trails into the granite dells, Watson Lake, Willow Lake, and several other areas.) Excellent hiking for beginners! Hiking Prescott on these trails has a lot of rocks, some good inclines, yet few wooded areas, if that's for you.

I am out of time right now for writing, but I will certainly come back to this particular blog post and add to it. Hiking Prescott is a favorite activity of mine, as well as my sweetie, and the Prescott hiking trails are second to none! The clean air, beautiful weather year-round, well kept trails, and friendly people, make this area of northern Arizona a popular location. 

This is also where I run my seminars as a photography guide in Prescott Arizona. If you are interested in improving your photography, and learning how to get that 'one-in-a-million' shot, then contact me ASAP. My contact information is listed below. This seminar is inexpensive and lasts only one day. Also, most of the day is spent out on one of the Prescott hiking trails learning how to raise your awareness and get that perfect lighting and angle. It sound easy...and it is! Yet, so many forget these basics when confronted with a beautiful scene. 

But, enough of that for now. I have more photos to edit and images to take. Until next time, keep shooting and working on your angles and lighting.
