The master planned community of Mountains Edge in the southwestern portion of the valley, has just opened up “EXPLORATION PARK”.

At 80 acres, Exploration Park encompasses Exploration Peak at the community’s main entrance, and features volleyball courts, horseshoe pits, picnic areas as well as an amphitheater.

The park will include the Western Theme Park, which blends elements of the community’s geography and history. The aim of Mountains Edge developer is to create an experience that challenges the imaginative young minds of children, while keeping them physically active.

Mountain’s Edge celebrates the history of the area, and it was the goal to design a park that not only captures that spirit of the Southwest, but also brings to our city unique and exciting amenities like the Western Theme Park and the city’s first mountain park.

The building facades are inspired by early days of settlement in the West, but built at a child’s perspective. Behind the building facades are climbing structures, slides and other equipment.

Adjoining Main street is an darea celebrating the region’s American Indian history and an area where children can participate in mock archeological digs.

Mountain’s Edge has created a Junior Explorer Program disigned to be an educatioal scavenger hunt, where each child can learn about he history of the area and, ultimately, earn a Mountain’s Edge Junior Explorer badge.

Throughout the park, children can search for replicas of animals found int he desert environment.

Children learn the best when they are having fun.

Exploration Peak rises 2,846 feet at the community’s entrance and offers a series of hiking trails, ranging from the leisurely to more challenging hikes.

This is a fabulous community that has gone to great lengths to preserve the natural environment.
