McDowell Mountain Preserve & Trails

Adero Canyon Trailhead Access

Adero Canyon Trailhead will be open for pedestrain access on weekdays after 3:00pm and dawn to dusk on the weekends. Vehicular access is strictly prohibited, as the roadway is still an active construction zone. All hikers are asked to use caution and to observe posted signage including parking restrictions, cross walks, etc. Hikers are also reminded that no amenities are currently available at the trailhead, including restrooms and water fountains. 

Additionally, the Golden Eagle Trailhead offers full hiking access throughout the hiking season. Hikers are reminded to use the marked pathways when approaching the Golden Eagle Trailhead via the Eagles Nest community.
