Gilbert

Gilbert is characterized by a relatively flat terrain typical of the Sonoran Desert region. The town sits at an elevation of approximately 1,237 feet (377 meters) above sea level, with minor fluctuations in topography across its 68.86 square miles. The landscape primarily features arid desert terrain, dotted with saguaro cacti and other desert vegetation, alongside several small lakes such as Val Vista Lakes and Dana Park Lake, which provide recreational opportunities. To the southeast, the San Tan Mountains offer a rugged backdrop, adding to the diversity of the landscape with hiking trails that traverse through desert washes and rolling hills​. This combination of flatlands and nearby mountain ranges contributes to Gilbert’s appeal for outdoor activities while also supporting its rapid urban development.
