Walnut Canyon

The Walnut Canyon area is one of Arizona's most well-preserved and scenic regions, still easily accessible by 4x4 vehicle. The scenery includes towering canyon walls, some as high as 800 feet, and numerous narrow canyons you can hike for days. There are sporadic willows and saguaros that line the trail. Wildlife includes released bighorn sheep, black bear, and even mountain lions. The trail ends at the Rincon Road starting point and the entryway to incredible backcountry scenery.
