Starting from the covered tables just passed the entry station, we will head out in the Dragonfly Trail for 4 miles. This trail is considered moderately challenging and will gain 500 ft of elevation. The trail will take you past towering saguaro cacti and offers sweeping views of the Phoenix Valley and the neighboring Tonto National Forest. The trails can be sand, rock, and uneven in places, so it Is recommended you wear sturdy supportive shoes and bring plenty of water. Please no pets. Please note that Spur Cross does not have water fountains, so make sure to pack in your own water.
MEETING LOCATION: Picnic Tables in front of the trailer at the trail kiosks, just past the entry station
Please note: Entry to Spur Cross Conservation Area is $3 per person. Annual Pass or CASH are accepted, and exact change is much appreciated. Payment can be made in iron rangers at Spur Cross parking lot nearby at end of road.
