Toothtaker Trail

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

It's rough, it's rocky, and in some sections it's loose, but that desert riding. If you want a technical challenge then this is a good option, not a lot of flowy sections but plenty of tough lines to test your skill.

Estrella Foothills Trail

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

This is desert riding at its finest. Rocks, cacti, tight turns, and beautiful mountain views are everywhere on this trail. There are a few sections that might require hike-a-bike but there are also a few benches to get some rest and enjoy the scenery.

Toothtaker Trail

Description

If you're looking for a challenging touring cycling adventure that truly tests your bike and your legs, the Toothtaker Trail – Toothtaker Trail loop from Casey Abbott Semi-Regional Park delivers. This difficult 23.8-mile (38.3 km) route packs in 1671 feet (509 metres) of climbing over an estimated 3 hours and 48 minutes, making it ideal for experienced riders ready to tackle varied desert terrain.

What to expect on Toothtaker Trail – Toothtaker Trail loop from Casey Abbott Semi-Regional Park

The route winds through interconnected desert valleys, offering open views of Goodyear, distant purple mountains, and the White Tank Mountains. You'll navigate long desert stretches, sandy arroyos, and curvilinear hillside rambles, with rocky sections adding to the challenge. Keep an eye out for the tall, boulder-laden crest that provides expansive views of the Estrella Mountain's interior hills. While climbs are generally gradual, the varied terrain and rocky washes mean this route is best suited for touring bikes equipped for rougher conditions, or even mountain bikes, rather than road-oriented setups.

Planning your visit

The trail starts from Casey Abbott Semi-Regional Park, which serves as a convenient access point to the Estrella Mountain Regional Park trail network. Given the arid desert environment, especially in Arizona, always carry plenty of water, particularly during warmer months. The park offers a tranquil, remote wilderness setting, so plan your visit during cooler parts of the day or year for the most comfortable ride.
