The largest cacti in the United States are located in this 91,442-acre national park surrounding the Arizona city of Tucson. Saguaro National Park was created in 1994 and was designated a national monument in 1933. It is named for its main feature of the enormous tree-sized Saguaro cactus that only grows in the Sonoran Desert and can live as long as 250 years.

Saguaro National Park is open daily from 7:00 AM to sunset. Entrance stations and signs are accessible during these hours. The park is closed on Thanksgiving and Christmas Day. Check the NPS website for holiday exceptions and temporary closures due to weather.

Yes, standard park entrance fees apply - $25 per vehicle (7-day pass). Fees cover access to both the Tucson Mountain and Rincon Mountain districts. Purchase at entrance stations or online via Recreation.gov. Federal passes like America the Beautiful are accepted.

Can I visit the Saguaro National Park sign during monsoon season safely?
