Hermit Trail
AI-suggested draft · review before you go
Hermit Trail is a 17.2-mile out-and-back hike located in Arizona near the Arizona area and managed by the United States National Park Service. This trail features 3,291 feet of elevation gain, making it a moderately challenging day hike or backpacking route. The trail descends into remote canyon country, offering hikers the opportunity to explore backcountry terrain away from the main tourist corridors. As an out-and-back route, hikers retrace their path on the return journey. The elevation gain is experienced on the return ascent, which can be strenuous depending on fitness level and conditions. This National Park Service-managed trail provides access to scenic desert and canyon landscapes typical of Arizona's high desert ecosystem. The combination of distance and elevation makes this suitable for experienced hikers looking for a full-day adventure or multi-day backpacking trip. Hikers should come prepared with adequate water, sun protection, and navigation tools. Check with the National Park Service for current trail conditions, permits, and seasonal closures before planning your visit.
