With the first hint of summer, we’re ready to travel the Sky Island Scenic Byway—Mount Lemmon Highway to the town of Summer-Haven, Arizona! This breathtaking 25-mile paved road takes us along one of Arizona’s most scenic byways, and winds us up a trail that ascends 9,157 feet through the rugged Santa Catalina Mountains into a much cooler climate. Along the way there are many pull-off points for photo opportunities, or just to enjoy the magnificent landscape. Nestled into the rocky peak of Mount Lemmon sits the tiny town of Summerhaven, home to the Iron Door Restaurant, where we’ll enjoy lunch on self. A charming eatery offering delicious homemade soups, a variety of fresh salads, sandwiches and more, the Iron Door is most famous for their chili & cornbread combo and fresh baked pies. Pull up a chair on the patio surrounded by flowers and hummingbirds and treat yourself to a day away from the heat of the Valley.
