Dreamy Draw Park - North Central Phoenix

Dreamy Draw is located at the base of the Piestewa Mountain. It is in North Central Phoenix and not far from downtown Phoenix. The Piestewa Freeway or 51 Freeway runs through the park. The exit for the park on the 51 Freeway is Northern Avenue. When you exit, hang a right and the park sign is situated on the east corner of Northern. Dreamy is popular with hikers, photographers and nature lovers. Despite being so close to urban Phoenix, it is a great nature escape that erupts not far from you back door. If you are going during summer, pack water. Wear hiking shoes or other sturdy shoes as the terrain is rocky and uneven.
