The ​Friends of Pinnacle Peak Park was founded to ensure the Park's ambiance is preserved for future users.  More than 240,000 visitors each year enjoy the beautiful trail and unsurpassed views that Pinnacle Peak offers.  The unparalleled beauty of the Sonoran Desert is captured magnificently at the Park, but like all desert areas, it is a fragile ecosystem. The Friends of Pinnacle Peak Park supports, preserves, and enhances the character of the Park in alignment with users' interests.
