Fodor's Expert Review King Canyon Trail
Saguaro National Park
Trail
This 3.5-mile trail is the shortest, but steepest, route to the top of Wasson Peak in Saguaro West. It meets the Hugh Norris Trail less than half a mile from the summit. The trail, which begins across from the Arizona–Sonora Desert Museum, is named after the Copper King Mine. It leads past many scars from the search for mineral wealth.
Look for petroglyphs in this area.
Difficult.
