Perimeter Trail This is another fabulous ride. It ranks right up there with Brown Canyon. At 3.75 miles one way it may sound short. Don't be fooled. This trail is 100% single track, has some technical parts, and is drop dead pretty. While it is not as fast as Brown Canyon, it has just as much to offer in it's own way. There are some severe drops in places, wonderful views, and it is well maintained. There is another, BETTER option - Take the single track to Carr Canyon Picnic area, then go up the Carr Canyon Road (pretty good uphill grind) for about 2 miles to the Clark Springs single track which will lead you down to Miller Canyon (more single track) and back to the Miller Canyon Road. This is about a 10 mile loop which ranks right up near the top of those available in Southern Arizona. Gerard showed this to our group in August of 2000. Wonderful ride. Take a camera! DIRECTIONS: Take Highway 92 to Miller Canyon Rd., turn right for about 2 miles until the pavement ends and then begin looking on your left for the parking area. The trail itself begins about where you drive into the parking area. It is on the other side of the road and well marked. Follow the single track all the way to Carr Canyon Picnic area (3.75 miles), take a break and return. A fairly high resolution trail shot from the Perimeter Trail - Back to Trails - |
