Lava Flow Trail
AI-suggested draft · review before you go
Lava Flow Trail is a 15.4-mile out-and-back route located in Arizona, managed by the Bureau of Land Management. The trail features 1,094 feet of elevation gain over its distance, making it a moderate hiking option for those seeking a longer day hike or backpacking adventure. This trail showcases Arizona's volcanic landscape, with hikers traversing through terrain shaped by ancient lava flows. The out-and-back format allows hikers to turn around at any point, making it flexible for different fitness levels and time constraints. The BLM maintains this trail as part of Arizona's public lands system, ensuring access to this natural area. Hikers should come prepared with adequate water and sun protection, as desert conditions can be intense. The relatively modest elevation gain spread across the 15.4-mile distance means a steady, manageable grade rather than steep climbs. This trail is suitable for hikers with moderate experience looking to spend several hours in the Arizona backcountry.
