Description

Starting from the West Park Parking Lot of Papago Park, hike counterclockwise, keeping the golf course on your left. You'll start out on a paved path, but turn left after the golf course parking lot roughly a mile in and you'll be on dirt soon enough. Have fun meandering through the desert foliage, which is pleasantly less spiky (by Arizona standards) and a little more lush than most of Papago Park.
