Hiking Groups in Phoenix- EJ Peak 3/16/24
Looking for hiking groups in Phoenix? Don’t have anyone to hike with (yet)? So many people have come to me asking if I know of Group Hikes in Phoenix… so I decided to make one! I hope that creating these events will help you to branch out and make new friends! Please keep in mind- it is a lot of work for me to organize and I can’t do it all the time, but I do my best!

Group Hike 2- EJ Peak/ Lone Mountain
Want to check out what we did for February 2024’s Group Hike? Check it out HERE.
For March of 2024, I chose to take a group to EJ Peak. This is a hike I commonly do on my own and I love it. The area is beautiful, the hike is short but still a good exercise, and there usually aren’t too many other people there. Perfect for a group hike!
A Note About Group Hikes
Parking For Hiking Groups in Phoenix- EJ Peak
There is a large dirt lot for this hike with no parking fees, so I thought it would work well. Please note, on the weekend this is a common spot for horseback riding and mountain biking, so the parking lot fills up quickly when daylight starts!
EJ Peak Trail
I like this hike because it is NOT very time consuming. It only takes me an hour when I’m by myself. As a group, 90 minutes is reasonable. Our last group hike in Phoenix took almost 4 hours.

Destination: The Summit
Another reason I love this hike is that you actually get to summit a mountain. Loop hikes and other similar treks are great, but getting to stand at the tallest point in a mountain was great.
Everyone was so friendly too. Great conversations were had. I always love how people hike at different speeds, but no one leaves anyone behind. Love that. This is why I wanted to create hiking groups in Phoenix.
Gear You May Need
If you’re new to hiking and adventure, or you’re looking to upgrade, let me help you out! I am trying to keep my gear SIMPLE & SAFE lately. Having everything I need to keep me safe and protected, but also limiting the weight I am carrying and making it simple. Check out my GEAR LOCKER HERE.
