Trail Overview

The Ranch Loop Trail consists of two approximately 3-mile long OHV/4x4 sections. The trail is considered suitable for most stock 4x4 and AWD vehicles, but high clearance is recommended. The trail is mostly dirt with several sandy and rocky sections, and several dry wash crossings.

Difficulty

This is a relatively easy unmaintained road. There are several loose sandy sections, some rocky sections where high clearance or proper tire placement will be required, and a couple of eroded areas where you'll need to watch your lean angle.
