Los Burros Trail is a 13.5-mile loop hike located in Arizona near the White Mountains. The trail features 513 feet of elevation gain, making it a moderate option for hikers seeking a longer day outing without extreme elevation change. The relatively gentle grade means the challenge comes primarily from distance rather than steep climbs, suitable for hikers with good endurance. This loop trail allows hikers to return to their starting point without backtracking, making efficient use of time and offering varied scenery throughout the journey. The White Mountains region provides a cooler climate compared to lower Arizona elevations, particularly appealing during warmer months. Los Burros Trail is managed by Tracks White Mountains, the primary resource for trail conditions, maintenance updates, and any access restrictions. Hikers should consult trackswhitemountains.org before heading out for current trail status and any seasonal closures. The combination of distance and modest elevation gain makes Los Burros Trail suitable for intermediate hikers looking to build endurance or experienced hikers seeking a longer, less strenuous outing.
