Description
Hole-in-the-Rock is a natural geological formation in Papago Park, a municipal park of Phoenix and Tempe, Arizona. Hole-in-the-Rock is a series of openings that have eroded in a small hill composed of bare red sandstone. The red butte was created 6 to 15 million years ago and naturally formed with a series of openings caused by erosion. The formation is a popular attraction in the park. The summit is easily accessed from the rear via a smooth, but somewhat steep path. Once you reach the top, you come to the “chamber”, a shelter-like opening (a hole) the provides you with great views across the city.
Papago Park itself covers 1,200 acres of park recreation and extends to the cities of Phoenix, Tempe and Scottsdale AZ. Papago Park features a wide variety of outdoor fun and is home to some of the most visited attractions in the Phoenix area. The hole-in-the-rock is the most prominent icon in Papago Park and carries evidence that the prehistoric Hohokam Indians settled this area thousands of years ago.
