Rucker Peak is a short out-and-back trail in Arizona offering a steep climb for its modest distance. The 1.6-mile route gains 746 feet of elevation, making it a challenging hike relative to its length with an average grade of around 28%. This intensity makes it well-suited for hikers seeking a quick but strenuous workout rather than a leisurely walk. The out-and-back format means you'll retrace your steps on the return journey. Given the elevation gain concentrated over such a short distance, hikers should prepare for sustained climbing. The trail's compact nature makes it accessible for those with limited time but looking for meaningful elevation gain and physical challenge. Proper footwear and adequate hydration are recommended given the steepness involved.
