Hero: The Narrows
small-sr Icon

Located within State Trust Land south of the I-10, The Narrows is a connector trail that offers a great mix of technical terrain and narrow sections. This trail includes rutted areas and hill climbs leading to Cienega Creek. At the start of the trail, you'll encounter ridgelines, but the real challenges occur closer to the creek. Here, you'll face a moderately steep descent into the creek, where having at least a rear locker is advantageous. The trail has many sections of narrow vegetation, so expect some desert pinstriping on your vehicle. Depending on the time of year and recent weather, the creek could have significant water flowing through it.

Connect this trail with Lower Wakefield Canyon to create a nearly 20-mile loop.

There are no obvious camping spots along the trail, but if you decide to disperse camp in the area, a State Trust Permit is required.
