About This Trail
Start at the westernmost point on the loop trail in the valley. You can take a short walk to Pohono Bridge then take a tour of the west end of the valley to the base of El-Continent. The wide and paved trails in the valley are not the only quality trails in the area. There are also spots that are older than 50 years old, but you can see them from the paved trail. It's great in the valley during the year.
