Julian Wash Greenway

Exercise Trail

November, 2024 by barbscondo

We stayed at the Tucson KOA and you can ride out the back of the KOA and get on the trail. About the middle of the trail. First day we headed west for 7 miles. The trail flows into the Santa Cruz Trail so you could go a long way if wanted. It’s ok. Has two kind of confusing street crossings. Not particularly scenic. 2nd day went east for 10 miles where Julian wash flows into another section of the loop. This was a workout ride. You don’t realize it but it is a slight steady uphill and we had a good headwind. So a workout! No shade and not particularly scenic.

Eastern Canal Path

Ive been riding parts of this for 10 years

November, 2024 by darrelriffle777

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

Skunk Creek Trail

Nice overall, but could use some repair and better trail markings. Great length.

Eastern Canal Path

Great Ride!

May, 2024 by rp9b8bpx6b

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.

Central Arizona Project to Arizona Canal Trail

Nicely Done, Scottsdale!

April, 2024 by carlosdww1

Beautiful path and very, very clean. Completed entire path from south to north and back again and my only suggestion is to add a crosswalk crossing N 100th St to and from Horizon Park at the north end. This will keep cyclists and pedestrians much safer. Otherwise, I felt extremely safe the rest of the way. Loved it!

Consolidated Canal Path

Excellent jogging trail

March, 2024 by joenad55

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.

Rio Salado Pathway

Wonderful, paved, car-free trail that runs for miles!

February, 2024 by sag_tl

I started the trail at Riverview Park, near the Spring Training home of the Cubs. I rode west for over 10 miles, through Tempe, past views of the Sky Harbor, to the trail terminus in Phoenix. Then turned back, crossed the spectacular pedestrian bridge, and rode the north trail segment, before heading back to Riverview Park.

The trail is clean, well maintained, marked, lit in sections for nighttime riding, scenic in many spots, and overall a great PHX cycling experience. Strongly recommend, and can't wait to do again, and/or take the connection to the longer trail that runs all the way to Scottsdale for a full day in the saddle.

Prescott Peavine National Recreation Trail

correction on prior review

February, 2024 by marthaallyn

Take the right fork to continue onto Iron King Trail.

Prescott Peavine National Recreation Trail

disappointing trail conditions

February, 2024 by marthaallyn

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.

Consolidated Canal Path

Too many crossings

January, 2024 by reserve.tpritchett

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.

Lake Havasu City Island Trail

resurfacing in January 2024

January, 2024 by agirlcyclist

The sections that have been completed are nice and smooth. Older sections rough and cracked.

Cañada del Oro River Park Trail

Great Asphalt Trail - well maintained

December, 2023 by gc4

Started at Thornydale and rode NE. As others have noted, the trail climbs very gradually going NE which makes the return ride easy. Did 5 miles out and 5 miles back. Scenery is pretty with mountains in the distance. Saw a few other cyclists on the trail and a couple people walking dogs. Drove down from Phoenix to ride this trail and will definitely ride this trail again; will also explore the rest of the Loop.
