If you’re in search of things to do in Queen Creek, Arizona, we have a two-part outing that appeals to both nature lovers and foodies. After enjoying a scenic (and slightly challenging!) hike at San Tan Mountains Regional Park, you’ll head to the Queen Creek Olive Mill for a delicious meal. We can’t imagine a better way to spend a day!
Our adventure begins at San Tan Mountain Regional Park, a 10,000-acre Sonoran Desert paradise just south of Queen Creek.
Marvel at a handmade olive mill, taste samples, and leave with a whole new appreciation for high-quality olive oil.
Once you've completed the tour, peruse the on-site marketplace for wine, vinegar, olives and olive oils (of course), and other Mediterranean-inspired items.
