Take A Hike! A few scenic and challenging hiking trails lead hikers far into the depths of the McDowell Mountain Range. Most trails in the range are unmarked but well-traveled. Some are single-track horse trails others jeep trails. Access to some of the trails are easy with unofficial trailheads leaving from paved streets, others are only accessible via jeep roads and graded unpaved roads. Peaks in the range: Box Canyon - Closed for development by MCO Properties. Due to efforts to preserve land with in the McDowell Mountains, several hikes in this area have been closed to the public while the land is being negotiated for acquisition. We have been asked to remove them from our site until further notice. Eventually and hopefully, these two fabulous hikes will be available again in the future. For a schedule of guided hikes in the McDowell Mountains, or to help in preserving the mountains, call or visit online McDowell Sonoran Land Trust. MSLT is an organization dedicated to educating the public about the value and importance of protecting these majestic mountains and surrounding foothills. The organization has also been instrumental in the continuing effort to establish the McDowell Sonoran Preserve. McDowell Sonoran Land Trust
