Generally considered an easy route. This is a popular trail for hiking, mountain biking, and running, but you can still enjoy some solitude during quieter times of day. The trail is open year-round and is beautiful to visit anytime. Dogs are welcome, but MUST be on a leash. This curated, well-maintained trail is a great option for exploring the lovely desert scenery of Robles Pass Trail Park. This peaceful loop feels remote and will make you forget how close you are to the city. The park has many intersecting trails, making it easy to adjust the length and difficulty of your adventure. Keep an eye out for wildlife such as wild quail and lizards.
Located near the south end of the Tucson Mountains, this park offers stunning views in all directions from the highest point, and the 16 miles of singletrack trails take mountain bicyclists, hikers, trail runners and equestrians through a Sonoran Desert environment that includes lush vegetation, rock features and a historic house built from native rock.
The 1,038-acre Robles Ranch property was added to Tucson Mountain Park in 1999, and trails were completed in 2010.
Wear comfortable walking/hiking shoes appropriate for mountain dirt trail - narrow, rocky, gravely. Dress appropriately for the weather. Bring at least 1L water, hat, hiking poles (as needed) or whatever you need to be prepared and comfortable for hiking in the desert.
Average pace is 1.5-2.5 mph - aka 'slow'. We walk at the pace of the slowest hiker. There will be stops/pauses for photos, interesting plants, exceptional views and rest/water.
