Phone Line Hiking Trail

Following the route of an old phone line that went up the mountain to the Palisades Ranger Station, the Phone Line Trail affords a view of Sabino Canyon seldom seen by the casual visitor. At its highest, the 41/2-mile trail takes you about 400 feet above the canyon, reducing to miniature the shuttles along the paved road and giving you an eagle's-eye view of the activities below. Ask for directions at the Sabino Canyon Visitors Center, 5700 N. Sabino Canyon Rd. Phone 520-749-8700.
