Picacho Peak State Park is a state park surrounding Picacho Peak in Picacho, Arizona. The park is located between Casa Grande and Tucson near Interstate 10 in Pinal County. Its centerpiece spire is visible from downtown Tucson, a distance of 45 miles (72 km). The summit rises to 3,374 feet (1,028 m) above mean sea level. Though appearing to be the remnant of a volcanic neck, it is now believed to be a tilted and eroded piece of rock overlain by a lava flow.

  • Beautiful park! Stunning desert landscape! Nice campground with showers but no water filling place. There is a drinking fountain in the visitor center. And there are dish sinks! Awesome stay! Will definitely stay again when I come by this way!
  • We absolutely loved this park! Easy access from highway, plenty of room, paved, quiet, clean bathrooms and wifi. Staff was so friendly and helpful. The views were stunning and the grounds were all very clean. The showers were hot and clean and really nice bathrooms. We can’t wait to come back and stay longer. Each site has a picnic table and fire ring along with hook ups. Can’t beat the cost and the views!!
