Treasure Loop Trail
Located about 40 miles east of Phoenix right off AZ-88 E/N Apache Trail.
The initial trail begins at an elevation of 2000 feet within the Sonoran Desert. The trail can be accessed via the Cholla (northern side) Day-use Area or the Saguaro (southern) Day-use Area.

Drive Through The Apache Trail
Its about a 40 minute drive to the beginning of the trail from Phoenix, and the trail itself is close to a two hour drive, if you don't plan on stopping along the way. The beginning of the trail really begins at the Superstition Mountains, you'll see a sign that says you are entering the Tonto National Forest. The first part of the trail is a straight road that goes for a little as you pass the...
