Schoolhouse Gulch

Schoolhouse Gulch is a multi-use trail in Prescott, Arizona, and is probably the easiest ATV trail in the area. It's a road-width trail that goes straight and flat through a forest floor. It starts at a staging area with parking for several vehicles right off Highway 89. There is a pinch point for 50" vehicles and a non-motorized hiking trail that starts here as well. The trail is wide, mostly flat, smooth, and with no obstacles, so it makes it a great place to go for a beginner rider. It's a pretty scenic area as well. It goes through a wash, but it is more like a road. It climbs up gradually 500 feet into a ponderosa pine forest and ends at another pinch point and small staging area on South Schoolhouse Gulch Road.
