Social distancing doesn’t have to limit your Labor Day weekend options in the time of COVID-19.
You can stay close to home and meet new species of animals, glide across a lake on a kayak and go see a movie at a drive-in. More ambitious travelers who live in the West can take a road trip: Find the perfect spot for stargazing in northern Arizona or visit a mountain town straight out of the Swiss Alps over toward New Mexico.
Here are 10 things you can do outdoors in Phoenix and around Arizona for Labor Day weekend 2020, curated by The Arizona Republic, which is part of the USA TODAY Network.

Wildlife World Zoo, Aquarium and Safari Park in Litchfield Park welcomed several new species, including the endangered pygmy hippo, while it was closed for five months due to COVID-19. Recent newcomers also include clouded leopard pups, young colobus and spider monkeys, and a baby capybara. Some attractions remain closed, but you can still ride the Sky Ride, African Tram and Safari Train. The petting zoo, stingray touch tank and giraffe feeding station will also be open.
