Know before you go

• 💡 Hole-in-the-Rock is a 10-minute scramble — doable for most groups, but the final stretch has uneven rock steps.
• 💡 Pair it with the Zoo or Botanical Garden next door for a full half-day without moving the bus far.
• 💡 Midday rock is radiantly hot; early or late light is also when the red buttes photograph best.

Tips for group trips

• ✓ The Hole-in-the-Rock lot is small; buses drop at the lot entrance and park in the main Papago lots.
• ✓ The scramble to the viewpoint is short but uneven — brief your group on footwear.
• ✓ Sunset slots fill the viewpoint fast; arrive 30+ minutes early.
