Good easy hike just outside of Prescott, AZ
Prescott Peavine National Recreation Trail的点评
点评:We arrived here before 11 a.m. on a Sunday morning. The trailhead is located about 2 - 3 miles from Prescott, just off a main highway. There is a sizeable parking lot which charges $3 per day. There is also a bike repair station and restrooms at the trailhead.
We walked for about an hour. You first head downhill to the lake level and spend the first 1/3 mile or so getting to the lake. You then hike along the lake until a spur trail offers the opportunity to hug the shoreline and scramble over some rocks. It wasn't too challenging, but it was also not a completely level trail.
The scenery is nice - the lake, odd boulder formations, occasional wildlife (including a bald eagle!), some ranchers fixing a fence just off one trail, and a fair number of bikers (both manual and electric) on the main trail.
This was a worthwhile stop and we all enjoyed our hike here.
翻译:我们在周日上午 11 点之前到达这里。步道起点距离普雷斯科特约 2 - 3 英里,紧邻主要高速公路。有一个很大的停车场,收费3美元/天。步道起点处还设有自行车修理站和卫生间。
我们走了大约一个小时。您首先下坡到达湖面,并花费前 1/3 英里左右到达湖边。然后,您沿着湖徒步旅行,直到一条支线小道提供了拥抱海岸线并攀爬一些岩石的机会。这不是太有挑战性,但也不是一条完全水平的小路。
风景很美——湖泊、奇怪的巨石结构、偶尔出现的野生动物(包括秃头鹰!)、一些牧场主在一条小道旁修护栅栏,主道上有相当多的骑自行车的人(手动和电动)。
这是一个值得停留的地方,我们都很享受在这里的徒步旅行。
