Camelback Mountain \u2013 1.3 or 2.6 Miles<\/span><\/h3>\n

Phoenix<\/b><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

⭐ For fitness enthusiasts or rock climbers who want to watch the sunset or sunrise<\/b><\/p>\n

One of the best hiking trails in Arizona is <\/span>Camelback Mountain<\/span><\/a>. Known for looking like the hump and head of a kneeling camel, It’s a must for hikers visiting Phoenix. The steep and challenging trails reward visitors with a spectacular 360-degree city and summit view. It’s not recommended for beginner hikers since it’s one of the highest peaks in the city with a 2,704 feet elevation. Hiking the mountain also requires you to climb rocks and boulders.<\/span>
\n[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]There are two routes to the summit:<\/span><\/p>\n

Cholla Trail<\/b> (1.5 miles one way): A less steep but longer climb, offering a more gradual ascent.<\/span><\/p>\n

Echo Canyon Trail <\/b>(2.6 miles one way): A steeper, rockier route with a parking lot, bathrooms, and water fountains at the trailhead.<\/span><\/p>\n

Both trails require some rock scrambling, so if you’re looking for a fun challenge, visit this Arizona hiking destination. We recommend hiking early in the morning or late in the afternoon to avoid Arizona\u2019s smoldering heat.\u00a0<\/span>

Piestewa Peak Summit Trail – 2.2 Miles<\/span><\/h3>\n

Phoenix<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

⭐ For travelers looking for a less crowded alternative to Camelback<\/b><\/p>\n

Piestewa Peak is another popular Arizona hiking destination located in the <\/span>Phoenix Mountain Preserve<\/span><\/a>. This 2.2-mile out-and-back trail features steep switchbacks and mountainside stone steps and attracts more than 200,000 hikers a year. This peak is perfect for intermediate to advanced hikers and offers you a 360 view of the city just like Camelback Mountain. This hiking destination was named after Lori Ann Piestewa in 2003, the first Native American woman to die in U.S. military combat. The peak is also known for its quick elevation gain reaching 1,200 feet in just 1.1 miles. Here you\u2019ll hike to the second-highest point in Phoenix.

Bright Angel Trail \u2013 7.8 Miles<\/h3>\n

Grand Canyon National Park<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

⭐For experienced hikers who want to photograph the Grand Canyon<\/b><\/p>\n

For a truly unforgettable hiking destination in Arizona, the Bright Angel Trail takes you deep into the <\/span>Grand Canyon<\/span><\/a>. The trail starts from the South Rim of the canyon near Bright Angel Lodge. The hike is very strenuous and is one of the most famous hikes in the canyon. This 7.8-mile trek leads to the Colorado River with incredible views of the canyon walls and rock formations. There is also a Mile-and-a-Half Resthouse hikers can stop at as they tackle this long hike. The trail also follows an ancient Havasupai path used by Indigenous people that’s brutal but worth every step according to visitors. So, pack intentionally bringing trekking poles to help you along the way.\u00a0<\/span>

Sedona<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

⭐For casual hikers who love Arizona desert flora and fauna<\/b><\/p>\n

Devil\u2019s Bridge Trail is a round-trip hike that leads to a stunning sandstone arch within the <\/span>Coconino National Forest<\/span><\/a>.

Antelope Canyon \u2013 0.5 or 6.5 Miles<\/h3>\n

Page<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

⭐For a once-in-a-lifetime hiking experience<\/b><\/p>\n

Antelope Canyon<\/span><\/a> is one of the most unique hiking trails in Arizona, featuring narrow sandstone passageways and wavy rock formations. The Canyon is on tribal land, so you’ll need a Navajo guide to hike it but it’s a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Plus,\u00a0 it’s divided into two: Upper Antelope Canyon and Lower Antelope Canyon trails. The Upper Antelope Canyon is the easiest part to hike with a flat walk through a narrow passage. The Upper portion is very popular and you can expect a crowd. The lower canyon is more Adventurous but you won’t see the light beams like in the upper canyon.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Upper Antelope Canyon<\/b> (0.5 mile one way): The most popular section, known for its famous light beams and photography opportunities.<\/span><\/p>\n

Lower Antelope Canyon <\/b>(6.5 miles one way): A more adventurous option with ladders and narrower passageways.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Coyote Buttes North (The Wave) \u2013 <\/span>6.6 Miles<\/span><\/h3>\n

Vermilion Cliffs National Monument<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

⭐For nature lovers who love roaming untouched landscapes and the remote wilderness<\/b><\/p>\n

The Wave<\/span><\/a> is a surreal sandstone rock formation that looks like it belongs on another planet. It\u2019s a 190-million-year-old sandstone rock. The rippling, wave patterns were formed by wind and water erosion dating back to the Jurassic period. It’s one of the most exclusive and best hiking trails in Arizona, with only 64 permits available per day. Like the Antelope Canyon, getting a permit at the Vermilion Cliffs National Monument is a rare opportunity. While worth the wait, tens of thousands of people apply for the permit every year. Most hikers apply multiple times before winning a spot and the key to success is applying for multiple dates. If you’re lucky enough to get a spot, be prepared for an unmarked trail requiring you to use a GPS or compass. Hiking the wake is perfect for travelers who want to explore freely.\u00a0<\/span>

Whether you\u2019re in Phoenix, Tuscon, Sedona or Flagstaff, there is no shortage of breathtaking hiking trails in Arizona to connect you with nature. The hard part is choosing which trail to hike first! Luckily we\u2019ve got the perfect list to help you out with that decision. This list of the best hikes in Arizona features trails accessible only by permit as well as easy-to-find trails near urban areas. Most of these hikes provide a physical challenge and are best-suited for moderately experienced hikers, and all of them provide a rewarding view. Read on for our favorite hiking trails in Arizona.<\/p>

Camelback Mountain<\/h3>

Hiking Camelback Mountain is pretty much a rite of passage if you\u2019re going to be visiting Phoenix. It\u2019s the most popular hike in the Phoenix metro area, and for good reason. It\u2019s equal parts challenging and rewarding, with rock scrambles along the way where you\u2019ll have to use your hands. There are two ways to hike it: from the less steep but longer Cholla trailhead, or the more popular and steeper Echo Canyon trailhead.<\/p>

The Cholla trailhead is typically less crowded and features a 1.5-mile trip one way to the summit. You can\u2019t park at the trailhead here, as it\u2019s in the back of a private neighborhood. You\u2019ll have to park at the foot of the mountain in neighborhood street parking and walk up the hill to the trailhead, where the route follows the spine of the smaller hump of the mountain. Echo Canyon is 1.3 miles through steep rock scrambles to the summit, and the trailhead has a parking lot, bathrooms and water fountains. You can\u2019t go wrong either way!<\/p>

Piestewa Peak Summit Trail<\/h3>

Piestewa Peak, formerly known as Squaw Peak, is the pointed mountain decorating the Phoenix skyline. It was renamed in 2003 after the first Native American woman to die in combat in the U.S. military, Lori Ann Piestewa. The 2.2 miles out and back hike in the Phoenix Mountain Preserve has fewer rock scrambles than Camelback. It is steep and jagged though... With switchbacks and steps carved out of rocks. At the summit, you\u2019ll find gorgeous 360-degree views of the Phoenix area.<\/p>

Bright Angel Trail<\/h3>

If you\u2019re looking for the best trail in the Grand Canyon, this is it. The Bright Angel Trail takes you from the South Rim of the canyon down to the Colorado River below. It\u2019s 9.5 miles to the Bright Angel Campground below, so if you\u2019re going to do the entire hike down and back, you should plan for multiple days of hiking. However, there are several stops along the way if the full hike isn\u2019t for you.<\/p>

You can find bathrooms, drinking water and covered spots to rest at the Mile-and-a-half Resthouse, Three-Mile Resthouse, or Indian Garden as you descend into the canyon. This is definitely not a hike you want to do in the heat of summer at all - the portion of the trail below Indian Garden known as \u201cDevil\u2019s Corkscrew\u201d follows a creek and is known for getting brutally hot. Plan to drink lots of water and hike in the early morning or late evening. When done correctly, this trail is the best place to experience the Grand Canyon up close and personal.<\/p>

Devil\u2019s Bridge Trail<\/h3>

This highly photographed rock formation near Sedona is well worth the hike. It\u2019s a 4.2 mile out and back trail that leads to a natural sandstone arch in the Coconino National Forest. You\u2019ll start at the parking lot for the Mescal Trailhead on Long Canyon Road and take Mescal Trail to Chuckwagon Trail until you cross Vultee Arch Road, where you pick up the Devil\u2019s Bridge Trail. If you are driving a 4x4 and don\u2019t want to hike as far, you can also opt to drive down Vultee Arch Road and park directly at the Devil\u2019s Bridge Trailhead, which makes it just a 2-mile hike roundtrip. The hike is filled with gorgeous Red Rock scenery and diverse plant life. You\u2019ll definitely want a camera on this route.<\/p>

Antelope Canyon<\/h3>

Now, on to the more regulated hikes on our list. Antelope Canyon isn\u2019t a long or difficult hike. You will have to hire a guide to get to this breathtaking slot canyon though. It\u2019s on a Navajo Park. So you\u2019re required to have a native guide accompany you. There are two options: the upper and lower canyons. The upper canyon is the one you\u2019ve likely seen the famous light beam photos of, and it\u2019s extremely accessible since above ground and you don\u2019t have to descend into the canyon. However, it is more expensive and more crowded. The lower canyon is for the more adventurous traveler. It\u2019s more narrow and requires climbing ladders into and out of the canyon - but you\u2019re much more likely to get a photo here without people around.<\/p>

The Wave<\/h3>

The Wave is another photogenic Arizona location that you\u2019ve likely seen on a screensaver before. You\u2019ll need a Coyote Buttes North permit for this 5.2-mile hike on the Utah\/Arizona border in the Vermilion Cliffs National Monument. The catch: only 20 permits are given out per day. There\u2019s an advanced lottery online that gives out half the day\u2019s permits. The other 10 are given out in person at the Visitors Center in Kanab, Utah. If you\u2019re lucky enough to get selected... You\u2019ll want a map to navigate yourself to The Wave as it isn\u2019t marked like your typical trail. The otherworldly views of this red sandstone formation will be well worth the effort it takes to get there.<\/p>

Havasupai Falls<\/h3>

Speaking of hard tickets to come by, we cap off our list with Havasupai Falls. These turquoise blue falls on a backdrop of red desert rocks are absolutely breathtaking. You\u2019ll have to win the lottery and take a multi-day backpacking hike to get there. You can enter the lottery online on February 1st to try to claim a coveted spot. You can also book a tour company. You\u2019ll start at the top of Hualapai Hill and hike 8 miles down to the small town of Supai. Fun fact: It is the only place in the U.S. that still gets all their mail via Pony Express!<\/p>

To get to the famous Havasu Falls, you\u2019ll have to hike 2 more miles past the town to the campground and ranger station. You can hire a pack mule to carry your gear on the hike, but we recommend carrying your own pack. Havasu gets all the attention, but be sure to check out Beaver Falls and Mooney Falls on your visit as well. This hike is truly a bucket list experience for anyone who loves the outdoors.<\/p>
