点评:A very nice trip that is worth doing because it will show you a different Arizona. We chose the central part of the Mogollon Rim that is above Payson for a good day drive. You take road 260 east for 30 miles from Payson to the rim and after mile post #282 turn left on dirt road #300. The scenic drive on #300 stretches for 45 miles along the rim and offers several designated view points, but you can stop at many other places to take pictures of the beautiful pine trees and steep rocks. There are 5 lakes at 2-3-4 miles east from the road with plenty of camping sites. Our preference goes for Bear canyon lake , because the camping is a mile from the lake and it is not that crowded. Great place for ATVs! Descending from the rim to SR 87 has a lot of turns and a noticeable change in vegetation. Turn left on SR 87 west heading to Payson for another 30 miles. Passing by the village Stawberry, don't miss the pastry place called PieBar on you right from the road. Try their pies, empanadas, desserts that are always freshly baked (8 am- 5 pm). Our favourites are the Berry/apple blossom sweets.
If you have to travel from Phoenix you add extra 90 miles to Payson and it is still possible to do the Mogollon loop trip in one day.

如果您必须从菲尼克斯出发,则需要额外行驶 90 英里到佩森,但仍然可以在一天内完成莫戈隆环线旅行。
