The 1-mile Spanish Corral Trail, an offshoot from the main Quarai Ruins Trail, offers a gentle, well-maintained hike with gradual climbs leading to beautiful views of the ruins and surrounding mountains. The trail provides a glimpse into the area's natural wilderness and features red sandstone "veins" believed to be the source of the stone used for the historic structures. Named for its use as a horse corral by the Spanish, the trail is lined with fragrant rose bushes and a variety of wildflowers, making it a scenic and easy hike.
