This trailhead is located in Tucson Mountain Park, just outside of the National Park boundary. It is the starting point for several trails: the King Canyon Trail (3.5miles up to Wasson Peak), King Canyon Wash Trail (meets back up with King Canyon Trail 0.9mi up the dry river bed), and Gould Mine Trail (0.8mi one way, meets up with the Sendero Esperanza Trail), all of which connect to Saguaro National Park's West District's extensive trail system.
