Bluff Trail #51
A bluff-edge traverse above Sabino Creek, contouring the canyon wall with steady rollers, short rock steps, and constant views into the gorge.
Bluff Trail #51 leaves the road corridor and slips out along the canyon’s north wall — narrow singletrack skirting drop-offs, pockets of shade in the mesquite, and open stretches where the Sonoran light pours straight in. Expect uneven rock, bits of exposure, and small ups and downs packed into a short distance. It’s a good place to move deliberately and look down into the water below.
