Hike the Brown Mountain Trail
I really enjoyed this hike. I recommend doing the hike as an out and back from the Kinney Road parking area. Also, the best time to hike is just before sunset. The hike is just over 4 miles total out and back with only about 500 feet of elevation gain. It has a climb at the beginning then rolls along a ridge with beautiful views of the Tucson Mountains. Be prepared for the trail conditions. Th...

You won't be in the wash for long before the trail will turn off to the right out of the wash. This trail is very well signed. You'll continue along King Canyon Trail until you reach the saddle.
At the saddle you'll have a great view of Tucson in front ...
