Hikers take on a well-shaded trail in Madera Canyon, not far from Green Valley.
Madera Canyon trail offers a super experience
Away from the picnickers and bird-watchers on the canyon floor, it’s easy enough to find some solitude along the Super Trail Loop, especially on a weekday. But you’re never really alone. Hike this pine-shaded path often enough and you may see black bears, wild turkeys, white-tailed deer and the occasional mountain lion. From the Continental Road exit off Interstate 19 to Madera Canyon, it’s 13½ miles to the Roundup Picnic Area and the trailhead parking lot.
