Pima Canyon, Desert canyon in Santa Catalina Mountains, Arizona
The trail through Pima Canyon extends 3.2 miles from the trailhead to the lower dam, rising from 2900 to 3750 feet in elevation.
The Pima Canyon area holds strong connections to indigenous tribes who utilized its natural resources and pathways for generations before European settlement.
The Coronado National Forest implements seasonal restrictions from January to April to protect the native Sonoran Bighorn Sheep during their lambing period.
Visitors access the canyon via Oracle Road and Magee Road, leading to a 50-vehicle parking lot equipped with drinking fountains and informational signs.
During specific seasons, the canyon displays a combination of desert plants, including saguaro cacti alongside seasonal water flows through its rocky terrain.
