Reach 11 is a Barrier Free area set aside for hiking, camping, spending the day together. The trail begins on the n/e side of Union Hills & Tatum and ends close to Mayo & Scottsdale Rd, the cities has put down a concrete trails that turns to a dirt path. Please remember to dress appropriately in jeans & hiking shoes, carry a first aid kit and water. Also be aware of all animals, four legged & ones that slither, carry a kit for snakes. Respect the area and carry out the trash you make while in the area, and remember to bring enough water if you decide to walk the trail from water troth to Scottsdale Rd. Stay hydrated, stay well.
Enjoyable easy walk through desert right in the middle of N. Central Phoenix/Scottsdale. Convenient to everything so easy last minute plans work well. Great place for walking leashed dogs and for young children to experience our beautiful desert without having to take a day trip or much preparation. Worth the stop regardless of fitness level. Just enjoy the desert scenery!
Great place to hike around.. lots of trails and easy to bike also.. I walk my dog here all the time as it is down the street from my house.. occasional snakes in the summer but Ive only seen a few.. Ive been wandering around this place for about 15 years.. plus they have rodeos when there is no pandemic !
Theres a good mix of paved and unpaved trails with varying lengths so you can easily adjust for how much time or distance you want to do. They seem popular - we regularly see walkers, joggers, bikers of all ages and on a few trails evidence of horses. Also depending on the season & time of day we see wildlife, especially quail and ground squirrels.
Good flat hike. Seems industrial at first but turns into a nice 2-3 mile walk.
This is a nice open space for a walk that make it feel like you are a little out of the city
Nice trail if youre looking for something quick and easy.
I am six months into being an above the knee amputee. The trails are everything! I am still on crutches so trails with elevation are a no go. This trail made it easy for me to walk with my Beastly (microprocessor leg)and learn to use it. I went with a friend and really enjoyed it. If you are injured, simply learning to hike, have kids you want to take somewhere for a stroll, or simply an easy trail to take a break from the rocks, roots and elevation. Highly recommend this place!
Nice end of the day hike.
Nice trail. Not alot of people on am
Great for a morning bike ride.
This is a wonderful park to walk in. Follow the path and you end up at a small lake. Take time to sit and be quiet to listen for and watch the birds. We saw many hummingbirds, one cardinal and other assorted birds. You will be sharing the park with people with dogs, on bikes and horses. We always have a wonderful time here just make sure you bring water, suntan lotion and a hat.
Great place to spend a day
Absolutely beautiful walk. Easy enough hike for those who cannot climb as it is flat and a lot of it is paved. A jewel in the middle of the city.
Lots of open area to fide fast. On the graded trail, you will have Almost no thorns to hurt pets feet or flatten a bike tire. Off trail its still desert, so use caution.
Ok for a stroll. A horse and bikers trail. Very flat and open.
Easy to get to but not much for shade.
Great spot for an easy crank on the trails.
I hesitate to share this review since what we like most about it is how uncrowded it is. Attractive and peaceful. Single negative is theres lots of dog poop left on the side of parts of the trail by less considerate dog owners, which our own dog is unfortunately prone to sample. The dog loves romping around the place though.
Very quiet yet interesting walks and multipurpose fun. The community using these trails are an enjoyable bunch of people they will make you feel very welcome if you happen to run into anyone at all lol therea always a kind and genuine smile to be shared :)
There is a lost key on a boulder just inside the fence on the right side at the trail head
Tons of mosquitoes due to the standing water all around the area. Bring plenty of bug spray or you will be eaten alive! Other than the mosquito attack this is a nice flat hike. Very little shade so plan accordingly!
If you like gravel but dont like Cactus this is the place for you. Not much here even for scrubland but its flat and if you just want to walk its okay. If youre from out of town and looking for Flora and Fauna youd be better off at a different recreational area.
I love this area it is less than a mile from Desert ridge, but a mile walk and you are in a wooded forest with a small urban lake. Frogs ducks and minnows. There is a picnic table, and it is a nice quick getaway.
Great complex for soccer and other sports tournaments. It gets busy during the weekends.
Very dull hike but flat terrain. Better go somewhere else.
This is a beautiful facility for sporting events, especially soccer. Shopping is close by for food -- real meals or fast options for between games. Be aware that dogs, even on leash, are not allowed on (or beside) the pitches/fields themselves.
Beautiful area for an easy hike to be able yo get out and enjoy our wonderful weather in AZ. I took my small did with me on the walk as well and she had no problems.
Great place to ride your horse in any riding discipline
Great facility, so pleased they support the community. Three separate events going there this weekend. Thanks for your hard work.
Nice area with smooth dirt trail for horses and people to enjoy. Weather great in January but will be toasty in summer.
Nice hike.
I live this unassuming easy to reach little hike. Many times I am rewarded with pictures like these.
We had a great trail ride with my grand kids. This is a great park
Muddy Princess run was funnnn
Wish the hours for the arenas were more. But they have so much to offer!
Thousands and thousands of mosquitoes
Nice and clean place to go visit
To see the desert while getting exercise, this is the place. Have seen wildlife while biking the trails.
