Paradise Valley, Arizona

Paradise Valley sits on the outskirts of Phoenix. It was pick as the perfect place to build a home, just out of the city and among the lovely scenery. There you will have plenty of places to go hiking on Camelback Mountain or Mummy Mountain, so named after a swiss resident noticed the ridge looked similar to a egyptian mummy lying down. A more popular hike in Camelback Mountain is Echo canyon to see the "The Monk", a rock that appears to be a monk on bended knee. Not much of a hiker? You can still enjoy the beatiful redrock againts the blue sky from the scenic drive. All around you will see the life of the desert and wild flowers. This gave some of the early settlers the idea to name it Paradise Valley, and Paradise it most definitely is.
