DISTANCE: 17 Miles
TIME 30 min
If you go into the Scottsdale Arizona area, you have to check out Apache Trail Rd to Tortilla Flat. This 17 mile ride is one of the best Arizona has to offer. The road is technical and during Arizona Bike Week you can expect a lot of traffic which leads to several accidents. I rate this route 3/5 in difficulty as the blind turns can be dangerous. This route takes you up and over the mountain pass to Canyon Lake where you will cross over “One-Way” bridges before getting into Tortilla Flat. The road is extremely well maintained and “grippy”.
