Indulge in the picturesque beauty of the Apache Trail, fondly regarded as “America’s oldest highway,” and embark on a scenic drive through untamed wilderness.
This historic route, once traveled by stagecoaches, winds its way through the stunningly named Superstition Mountains and bears the name of the Apache Indians, the trail’s original users. Spanning 40 miles, the road showcases a mesmerizing landscape, passing by glistening reservoirs, lush forests, and sprawling fields of cacti as it navigates through the mountains.
Be sure to allocate ample time for frequent photo stops along the way; the captivating vistas will leave you in awe and inspire countless snapshots. While the road is predominantly unpaved, it remains accessible to most vehicles. However, it’s best to leave the RV at home and opt for a more nimble transportation option to fully enjoy the journey.
