Rent a Chevrolet Blazer at Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport with Movly

Whether heading out to a desert trailhead or traveling around the city, the Chevrolet Blazer is a capable five-seat midsize SUV for either journey. The trunk has room for hiking gear, sports equipment or a family’s day bag. The Blazer feels confident on the paved routes linking Phoenix’s urban center with the desert parks beyond the city.

South Mountain Park and Preserve on Phoenix’s southern fringe covers about 15,800 acres of rugged Sonoran Desert landscape. About 100 miles of trails cross the preserve for hiking, mountain biking and horseback riding, with viewpoints offering broad views across Phoenix. The Blazer handles the paved roads leading to the park’s trailheads easily, and the trunk has room for the day’s hiking gear.

The Superstition Mountains, east of Apache Junction, offer a range of day hikes through volcanic desert terrain. The Peralta Trail leads to a viewpoint overlooking Weaver’s Needle, one of the area’s best-known rock formations. The rugged scenery makes it a memorable day trip, while the Blazer provides a comfortable drive east from Phoenix to Apache Junction.

Salt River Tubing takes visitors through the Tonto National Forest on inflatable tubes along a gentle, meandering section of the Salt River. Tube rentals and shuttle transportation to and from the river are included, making the logistics straightforward. The activity runs seasonally, so check current dates before visiting.

The Red Rock Scenic Road runs north on SR 179 into Sedona, where red sandstone formations grow larger at every bend. From Sedona, a separate scenic drive follows SR 89A north through Oak Creek Canyon, where the open desert gives way to a cool, wooded gorge lined with sycamore and pine. The Blazer is well suited to the longer journey, offering a comfortable drive and plenty of room for a family day out.
