Arrowhead Point and Cholla Loop

Route Description for Arrowhead Point and Cholla Loop

This hike uses two trails in Thunderbird Conservation Park to make a loop that climbs two hills. This hike might look somewhat unassuming but the view from the top of the trail is actually quite lovely, making this a fun one for weekend mornings when you want a short hike with a solid reward. Try this hike during sunset if you can!

This route might be challenging for total beginners, little kids, and hikers with mobility challenges. Make sure you bring water with you and avoid hiking during the hottest part of the day. Expect well-maintained trails.

From the trailhead, take H1 Trail to H3 Trail, which switchbacks up the ridge. Follow the ridge down the other side, continue along the base of the hill, and then bear left at the road. Take a right to get onto H2 Trail and climb up the other hill. Once again, follow the trail across the ridge and back down the other side, where you’ll arrive back at the trailhead.
