If you ever wanted to get someone excited about mountain biking this is the place to do it. Located on the outskirts of Scottsdale AZ, this trail network is part of the McDowell Sonoran Preserve. These multi-use trails cater to riders of all skills levels making it fun for families and intermediate riders. But there are also enough technical gems to keep advanced riders on their toes.
With alt lines and clear trail designations, riders will be able to choose how challenging they want their ride to be. There is not much in terms of elevation and everything is graded nicely making fitness less of a concern. And while we rode our full suspensions, kids bikes, hardtails and even gravel bikes would be well suited for these trails.
The parking lot was big, the bathrooms were clean and there were plenty of maps to study, making this an ideal ride destination. And speaking of amenities if you want to know more about Browns Ranch or make a donation, the folks at the McDowell Sonoran Conservancy do a great job keeping this place running beautifully. https://www.mcdowellsonoran.org/browns
