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.
