Papago Park Trail Reviews
Papago Park Trail Reviews
Papago Parks 1200 acres located just minutes from ASU used to be declared a national monument . It is covered with smooth rolling short singletrack loops. All types of riders enjoy this little section of desert in the middle of Phoenix. Easy riding and fun rocks to play on if you are into trials. It is the perfect place to squeeze in a short ride after work or before a football game. There aren't any clearly marked trails, they just zig zag all over the place. It is pretty hard to get lost out there. You can even ride by some of the Phoenix Zoo exhibits. My favorite is the mountain goat exhibit just off the trail. You can see how easy climbing a huge rock is supposed to be, when these guys start showing off.
