Bear Canyon Trail #29

A classic Sabino route up Bear Canyon to Seven Falls, weaving from desert flats into a narrow, cliff-lined gorge.

Bear Canyon Trail #29 leaves the Sabino area and follows the canyon upstream toward Seven Falls. Expect long stretches of open desert, rocky singletrack, and multiple creek crossings that come alive after storms. Beyond the falls, the corridor links into the Arizona Trail and passes the unofficial spur toward Thimble Peak — both more remote, committing extensions for those who know what they’re getting into.
