Sidewinder Trail, Sonoran Preserve

Highlight • Trail

The Sidewinder Trail is one of the smoother desert trails in this part of the Sonoran Preserve. The trail weaves through desert floor and some meadows; there normally isn't any water on this exposed trail so come prepared.

Apache Wash & Sidewinder Trail Junction

Highlight • Trail

Cool saguaro cactus right by the junction. Both trails offer great views and plenty of plant life. Be sure to bring water as there isn't much shade on either route.
