Many things to see near and past the designated north end of trail. A huge mining pit and great red rock views. I am going further north soon to see how far you can follow the canal to the dam in mountains.
Weekday ride on somewhat busy trail. Underpasses were greatly appreciated.
The trail is now over six miles from Power to Rittenhouse.
We are RVers and so nice to find an RV park that is on the trail. Staying at Rincon Country West RV and you can leave out the back gate and hit the trail. If you head south it is 2.5 miles to the end of the trail but heading north is 40 miles of riding and then connect to other trails. The trail condition is excellent and the scenery great. If the river had water would really be spectacular but it is dry. Saw a roadrunner on the trail.
We parked at the Shannon Parking lot for the Loop. Google maps will take you to the parking lot. Did an 18 Mile round trip. Could be longer if you wanted. You can cross the Wash at several places and ride both sides of the Wash. Beautiful scenery. Lots of trees and giant cactus. It was a Saturday so the trail was busy but fun. Parks along the way. We are staying at the South 40 RV park and next time we will just ride out of the RV park. Can use sidewalks to get to trail. Can also ride to the Canada del Oro and the Santa Cruz trail.
We stayed at So 40 RV park. Could actually have ridden from the RV park to the trail but drove and parked at the small lot at Thornydale and rode 10 miles north up the trail. The scenery is great and the path has lots of curves and 4 steel bridges to cross back and forth across the giant wash. Just after you leave the parking lot you come to a”Y”. One way is the Santa Cruz Trail and the other the Canada del Oro.
well maintained safe, quiet. great for hour, quick ride out and back
My only complaint is that they ripped up the pavement on some sections and never repaved it! I also want to share that on this canal, just south of the Riparian park (on Guadalupe) you will see electric lines and a sidewalk going east/west. This is a great trail to use in conjunction with this canal trail. This trail runs from power road way out to Tempe. Some parts are dirt but most are paved. This electric line trail will take you right to downtown Gilbert
There’s lots of street crossings, but it wasn’t that big of a deal. You just have to keep your eyes open. Maybe half of the trail was smooth between compacted dirt and concrete. The rest was fairly rough and gravely. Highly recommend it.
Started out at Hohokam Park and went five miles on it up and back. There are street crossings, but there are red light pushbutton traffic stops so the street can be crossed with little interruption. Only issue I have is lack of benches.
This is a very smooth trail, but way to many road crossings. In some sections, about .4 miles apart. We biked about 25 miles today, and averaged about 8 mph. Sadly, seems like all trails in Mesa are similar to this.
