Trail Overview

Springer Mountain is an easy and scenic point-to-point trail through the Apache-Sitgreaves National Forest near Lakeside, AZ. The route is graded and covered with gravel and easily passable by most vehicles. Rain may increase the trail difficulty, and winter travel may not be possible. This is a great connector trail to various other forest service roads leading to other peaks in the area. As always, be a steward and protect our public lands and national forests; observe Tread Lightly! Principles and have fun.
