The Apache Creek Trail isn't what you'd expect to come across when hiking in the desert of Arizona. The creek, itself, sits within the Apache Creek Wilderness and is lined with riparian desert plants, trees, and shrubs. The water level in the creek bed depends on the time of year and recent precipitation, but you can always plan on there being some water for you to filter. If you decide to do the popular Apache Creek Loop, you can still plan on not seeing many (if any) people and getting a real taste of Arizona wilderness.

Best by 4-wheel, one can get near the Apache Creek Wilderness with a passenger vehicle, and hike to the trailhead. The hike is ~7 miles counter clockwise filled with very picturesque nature scenes on this remote tour.
