Love the underpasses and option to choose either side of the wash in most places. Really beautiful!
We parked at Rio Vista Community Park. Beautiful Park. Lots of people and parking. From the Park you can also access Skunk Creek Trail which we got on by accident for a few miles but then turned around and came back and got the New River Trail. We did the section on both sides of the river (dry! lol) but quite a few beautiful Palo Verde trees along the trail. Will go back and head further south from the park towards Sun City. Nice trail with no street crossing interruptions.
Take the right fork to continue onto Iron King Trail.
After reading the reviews for this trail, we were surprised at the very lose gravel (?) and excessive mud. We were riding on a warm (mid-50s) day following a snowfall the week prior. The first 3.5 miles from the trailhead off of Prescott Lake parkway offered interesting views and geological features. The next 2 miles was in an area being developed for homes. Nothing special despite the signage talking about the loss of prairie habitat. We should have taken the left fork onto Iron King Trail.
Nice safe trail to ride. No traffic to cross. Joins other trails.
10 mile out and back. Apache wash trailhead in the middle. This is rarely busy, scenic and has some shoot offs if you’re a mountain biker or gravel biker.
My wife and I started our ride at the Fletcher Heights Trailhead at W Deer Valley Rd and rode south to where the trail crosses N Ball Park Rd (near the Grand Canal Trail) before turning back. The trail is well paved with concrete. There is no tree cover, but the overpasses do provide shade.
We just went on mile 8 and 9 of the trail, but plan to go back again to explore new parts of the trail!
5 mi end to end with trail head about in middle. We enjoyed the desert scenery since we are from Midwest, guess we appreciate the different views from what we are used to. While some of the path is along the road, it is separate so no need to ride on road.
Decent trail that is unfinished. Oddly made from concrete rather than asphalt, the seams aren’t as enjoyable on a bike. Good scenery and safe. Not really a destination ride like we hoped it might be.
easy to follow and mostly flat. Great for all skill levels
