Santa Cruz Live Cam

El Paseo de los Arboles runs alongside the Santa Cruz River between Ajo Way and Irvington Road. The pathway's 600 trees were planted between 1994 and 1997.

You could call El Paseo de los Arboles "memory lane." El Paseo de los Arboles (The Path of the Trees) is along the Santa Cruz River Park between Ajo Way and Irvington Road. It's a joint project of the Pima County Parks and Recreation Department and Tucson Clean & Beautiful. The 600 young trees, planted from 1994 to 1997, are courtesy of donors who paid $125 a tree to honor or remember a loved one with a palo verde, mesquite, acacia or desert willow. At each end of the mile-long path are tiled signs containing the names of the honorees. The memorial signs are right next to a wide, smooth path that's perfect for walking, skating or biking.
