The 2.8-mile, one-way trail originates at the Camino Loma Alta trailhead and leads east through the southwestern part of the Rincon Mountain District to the park's boundary. The easy-to-moderate trail runs parallel to the Rincon foothills along washes and a wide 4x4 road, past some of the district's largest saguaros and other cacti and brush.
