Suggestions for Scenic views near Tempe

Ally W. • November 18, 2013Being so close to campus, it is an amazing hike to take to clear your head and get an amazing view of the valley! Not usually busy and a very moderate, easy hike.

Scott K. • August 8, 2014Great spot for Happy Hour, esp. if you can catch the sun setting. Amazing views.

Cassidy O. • September 20, 2010This is a beautiful venue with a view of Tempe Town Lake! Also, the performance theatre is very small and intimate, and their tickets are pretty reasonably priced!

Brenda C. • November 17, 2013Tempe Town Lake is a great place to visit for the view, especially when the sun is setting you get a beautiful glimpse of the sunset and the lake. At night time the lights on the bridge turn on too!

Alicia B. • April 11, 2013Lobby has a waterfall & views of the valley! Top of the Rock has amazing views while eating and there are pools all over the property (inlcuding a water slide). Level 2 with patio is the way to go!

Neil C. • August 24, 2014Great place:) beautiful views. Great bar. Good food. Excellent service. I just had my company happy hour here. Had a great experience. :-)

Evan R. • April 6, 2011This is a pretty cool place to go to pass some time and view some art exhibitions. If you're a student you should check it out at least once- it's free! So come and go as you please.

Samantha K. • February 15, 2013Great place to go for a run especially at dusk the sunsets are quite the view! Super clean and well kept. They often host concerts and free events. Students should take advantage.

Katlyn O. • November 18, 2013Great for a picnic! Amazing views and pretty duck pond. But, if you are planning on using a gazebo for a party, you have to rent it out through the City of Tempe. They're pretty strict but its free.

Isaac K. • November 6, 2010Visit the upper level spa for an amazing view of Phoenix during the night but beware because Dracula protects the spa so you have to bring garlic with you.
