Depending on who you ask, you’re likely to get a number of answers when discussing under-appreciated cities: Phoenix, Arizona, may be one of them. Located in the southwestern United States, Phoenix might not seem like it can hang with the likes of New York and Los Angeles, but there is a ton to do in this city.

The first thing to keep in mind: Phoenix is an excellent base point for many other activities. Active travelers will find activities ranging from horseback and bike riding, to hiking the Arizona Wildlife Scenic Trail. This trail is more than 800 miles long, so travelers will always have a new path to explore.

A short ride from Phoenix proper, the Sonoran Desert offers hikes, guided tours and more — making sure there is always something to interest your traveling party.

Phoenix is also steeped in the history of indigenous peoples. Make sure to visit the Heard Museum for an entertaining and educational look at traditions, histories and cultures of 22 American Indian tribes of the region.

VisitPhoenix’s Top 10 Can’t-Miss Experiences list is filled with great ideas for things to do while in town, and does a great job showcasing the variety available to travelers.
