Scottsdale, Arizona, a city framed by the rugged McDowell Mountains and threaded with vibrant urban parks, offers a surprising blend of desert charm and outdoor recreation. At the heart of this southwestern oasis lies the Scottsdale Greenbelt, a 12-mile stretch of parks and trails weaving along the Arizona Canal, perfect for active outings. Arizona Recreation Tours curates a dynamic experience with their Girls Trip Pink eBike & Hike Tour, designed to blend movement, scenery, and social connection into one seamless adventure.
This 2.5-hour outing begins with an electric bike ride through the shaded pathways of the Scottsdale Greenbelt. The eBikes provide just the right boost, making it accessible for riders with varying levels of fitness while letting the desert landscape roll by comfortably under your wheels. The greenery along the canal contrasts beautifully against the arid backdrop, showcasing swaying palms, cottonwoods, and the occasional splash of desert wildflowers.
Next comes a hike up to Hole in the Rock, an iconic sandstone formation within Papago Park. This natural arch cuts a distinct silhouette against the Arizona sky, standing as a geological highlight formed by volcanic activity millions of years ago. The moderate, short ascent offers panoramic views of downtown Scottsdale and the surrounding Sonoran Desert, an ideal spot to catch breath and snap memorable photos.
The adventure concludes with a visit to the Love Sculpture in Civic Center Park, a vibrant pop-art installation that’s become a lively gathering spot in Old Town Scottsdale. Participants can customize the trip with snacks or lunch, making this not just a physical excursion but a chance to relax and connect over good food in a uniquely energetic setting.

Arizona Recreation Tours is a Scottsdale-based outfitter specializing in guided e-bike and mountain-bike experiences, rentals, and combined bike-and-walking tours across Scottsdale, Tempe Town Lake, Papago Park and Flagstaff. The company’s offerings span short, 2-hour park rides to longer 10–20 mile e-bike adventures, plus equipment rentals for independent exploration. Tours include photo-friendly routes and local-history stops — for example, Ride in the Pines climbs more than 800 feet, passes towering pines and a century-old gas station on Route 66. The Scottsdale Parks ebike & Old Town Scottsdale Walking Tour pairs a scenic 10-mile e-bike ride with a guided walking tour led by local expert Todd Davis, who provides a complimentary copy of his book. Safety and support are part of the experience: tours provide training, helmets, and guide assistance where noted, and the mountain bike rental includes quality bikes and safety gear. Signature experiences range from the Scottsdale Greenbelt E‑Bike 20 Mile Ride and the Scottsdale Parks System 15 Mile Ride to a Hole in the Rock hike, a Girls Trip Pink eBike & Hike option, and a Flagstaff E‑Bike Brewery Tour visiting breweries like Dark Sky Brewing, Mother Road Brewing, and Historic Brewing Barrel + Bottle House.
