Description
This trail marks the paved path along the north bank of Tempe Town Lake. Continue along from the end of the segment to go up into Scottsdale. Cross any number of the bridges to make a loop around the lake, or break off in the middle to head up into Papago Park. Just after the Mill Ave. bridge, you can head down to hike on a path directly adjacent to the lake. Additionally, you can follow the boat launch down to the water at the yacht club and hike on gravel. This trail is lit at night, but the gravel areas are not.
