Trail Overview
This trail will take you along the Hassayampa River. Often, the river is dry or shallow. There are some great shady spots provided by beautiful redrock walls. You can get off the trail on Rincon Road, but the river is way more fun and scenic. There are some fun side trips available for ATVs and UTVs.

Really fun trail. Lots of deep sand or rocks to drive through, you can choose whichever one. If you stick to the main wash it’s fairly wide with a few side trails to check out. As you get closer to box canyon it will narrow down. Lots of great areas at the opening of the box canyon itself with tree coverage for shade or to set up a pop up tent for a BBQ or spend the day out there. Super fun and will definitely be visiting again

South West trail start is blocked by barbed wire fence “private property”. Continue north on South Rincon to next dirt parking and then down to wash.
