What Is There To Do In Scottsdale?

Sometimes, the best reason to live in Scottsdale is how many things there are to do. Seriously, the city is FULL of experiences to be enjoyed. As locals, we at WLH know all the hottest spots in town. And we’re excited to share them with you. So, let’s get into it. Sound good?

Food

Next up is grub. Because let’s be honest, that’s what we all love, right? For a fun and delicious dining experience, check out Hash Kitchen. They offer an excellent brunch menu with creative twists on classic dishes, like bacon flights and cereal-topped pancakes. And if you’re a fan of tacos (who isn’t?), you’ve got to try Barrio Queen, where you can indulge in some of the best Mexican food in the city. We love BOTH of these places and visit them regularly for “team meetings”.

Nature

First up, we will speak to nature lovers. You will want to take advantage of hiking in the McDowell Sonoran Preserve. With over 225 miles of trails, you can explore the beautiful desert landscape. Plus, you’ll get your daily dose of exercise. With it being free? It’s a win-win!

Family-Friendly Fun

There are plenty of family-friendly activities to enjoy as well. Visit the OdySea Aquarium to see interesting sea creatures, take a trip to Butterfly Wonderland, or head to the McCormick-Stillman Railroad Park for a train ride and picnic.

Shopping

With so many high-end shops, boutiques, and malls, Scottsdale is a paradise for shopaholics. Whether you’re looking for designer clothes or unique gifts, there’s a store for everyone. Check out Scottsdale Fashion Square, Kierland Commons, and the Scottsdale Quarter for serious retail therapy.

Day Trips

Scottsdale is conveniently located near many fantastic day trip destinations. Take a short drive to Sedona to see the stunning red rocks, or head to Jerome to explore the historic mining town. You can also hike in the Superstition Mountains or take a scenic drive to the Grand Canyon.

Outdoor Activities

The weather is beautiful in Scottsdale, making it the perfect place for outdoor activities. Take a hot air balloon ride over the Sonoran Desert, go on a horseback riding adventure, or enjoy a relaxing day by the pool. The options are endless.

Sports

The city of Scottsdale is a sports lover’s dream come true. Catch a baseball game during spring training, or head to the Phoenix Open for world-class golf. You can also join a local soccer league, hit up a tennis court, or play a game of pick-up basketball.

The Arts

Did you know Scottsdale is a hub for art and culture? It is. If you’re looking for a unique and thought-provoking museum experience, the Scottsdale Museum of Contemporary Art is the go-to. And for a taste of the Wild West, check out the Western Spirit: Scottsdale’s Museum of the West. Good times.

Golf

Golf enthusiasts, listen up. Scottsdale is home to some of the country’s best golf courses and clubs. The TPC Scottsdale is a favorite among locals and visitors alike, offering not one but two championship courses. And if you’re looking for a bit of history, check out the Arizona Biltmore Golf Club, which legendary golf course architect, William P. Bell, designed.

Nightlife

And let’s remember the nightlife here! The city comes alive with various bars, clubs, and lounges when the sun goes down. If you’re looking for a unique and upscale experience, head to the W Scottsdale, where you can enjoy a rooftop bar with stunning views. And for a more laid-back vibe, check out the Rusty Spur Saloon, a local favorite for over 70 years.
