Enchanted Hills Trails Park Info
Trailhead Location

Enchanted Hills Trails Park is a 356-acre natural open space park located on the eastern foothills of Tucson Mountain Park.

This moderately rolling route starts out on the El Grupo trail where we will see not one, but two crested Saguaros.
At mile 1.5 we take the Fire 7 to to the Tecolate Trail which circumnavigates Enchanted Peak and will take us the trail up to the peak.
After a break atop the peak to enjoy the view we will head back down to the Tecolate Trail, then to the Fire 7 trail and back to El Grupo to complete the loop.
As with most trails in the Tucson Mountains this route will have some rough and rocky sections.

RSVP etiquette:
• Sign up only if you really intend to attend
• If you need to cancel, do so BEFORE the RSVP deadline so someone can get your spot
• If you change your mind, take yourself off the Going or Wait list
• Please don't be a no-show
Be sure to bring adequate water, food, trekking poles, etc.
As always - Hike at Your Own Risk
