Historic Sabino Trail

A steep historic line climbing out of lower Sabino, stacking stonework, switchbacks, and canyon views as you gain elevation.

Historic Sabino Trail wastes no time. From the canyon floor it tips up quickly into rocky, sustained climbing — old CCC cuts, stone steps, and tight traverses above the wash. Expect a stout grade, loose sections, and big canyon views building with every push. It’s short on cruising miles and long on effort, the kind of climb that lights up your legs and lungs.
