DUTCHMAN'S TRAIL
Superstition Wilderness, Arizona

 

DETAILS

Directions:

Take the first right turn after passing Lost Dutchman State Park. Follow this road to the end. Trail starts at the First Water Trailhead.

Equipment:

  • Sturdy hiking shoues
  • Long pants to protect from cactus and brush
  • Sun protection
  • water
  • camera
  • map
  • food/snacks

Hike Info:

Trail is easy to follow with signage only at trail junctions.  Full exposure to sun so wear a hat and sun glasses.

This trail begins/ends on the Second Water Trail and travels through the Superstitions for nearly 15 miles. I hiked the 3.9 mile section from the intersection with the Black Mesa Trail to the Second Water Trail. This 3.9 mile section is mostly flat. I was happy I chose this as the final section of a loop hike. The trail is fully exposed to the sun but later in the day, the surrounding hill provide some shade as the sun begins to set. The trail is easy to follow and has some beautiful scenery.
