As far as hiking - we had thought about just hiking as I don't know where you could rent mountain bikes around town. We are staying clear down by the PHX airport so we were looking at South Mountain Park (? I think that's the name of it) or the McDowell Mountain trails since they are close to Westworld.

[/ QUOTE ] Mcdowell mountain might be good since you'll be up in the vicinity anyway.. south mountain is quite a drive from scottsdale - at least an hour....

squaw peak is about 15-20 minutes north of the airport.. granted, when your in the mountainy area of the trails, you don't hear a thing but a plane buzzing by every so often.. still very relaxing and some good well mapped treks!

I'll bring the trail maps that we have with me to happy hour so you can check them out.
