If you're a single woman in Arizona, you'll have no trouble finding ways to entertain yourself and maintain your active lifestyle. From Phoenix to Tucson to Scottsdale, you'll find everything from mountain climbing to running clubs. Whether you're looking for a significant other to share your life with, or you are happy being single, you don't have to look far to find fun things to do in Arizona.

Join a Running Group

As a single woman, it can be lonely and even dangerous to go running by yourself. It doesn't matter if you are a novice jogger or an experienced marathoner; joining a running club is a great way to meet new people and get some exercise. You'll find a running club in just about every city in Arizona. Arizona Roadracers, the largest running club in the state, is based out of Phoenix, Arizona. It has more than 2,000 members and offers club runs, coaching sessions and discounts at local running stores.

Join a Singles Adventure Club

From backpacking to caving to rock climbing, Arizona is the ideal place for any outdoor adventurer. The Sierra Club Singles is a popular adventure club for thrill-seeking singles who love outdoor activities. The club sponsors several trips a year to caves, hiking trails and canyons throughout the state. Sierra Club Singles also hosts many social events so you can meet more people who share the same passion for outdoor adventures.

Explore a Native American Reservation

Arizona has a rich history of Native American culture; visit a reservation or Native American history museum and you will broaden your horizons. If you don't want to travel alone, hire a guide to give you a tour. Not only will you learn new things, you will also be able to stretch your legs and get some fresh air as you explore all that Arizona reservations have to offer. The Inter Tribal Council of America offers information for anyone interested in exploring Native American culture in the state. Check their website for more information about events for individual tribes and reservations.

Find a Singles-Friendly Church

Many churches in Arizona offer Bible studies or discussion groups specifically for singles. If you are a spiritually minded woman, consider joining a church to meet new people and share advice. Just because a singles group is sponsored by a church, doesn't mean you can't have fun. Get out on the dance floor and learn to square dance with the Valley Single Squares at First Presbyterian Church in Mesa, Arizona.

Visit an Art Museum

There's nothing more calming than standing among great works of art. As a single woman who may be dating different people, sometimes you just need time to yourself; browsing an art museum is a quiet, relaxing way to spend an afternoon. Although there are impressive collections all over the state, the Phoenix Art Museum is the most popular. Take a leisurely walk through the exhibits, and you'll feel refreshed enough to tackle any dating challenges that come your way.
