Managing agency

U.S. Forest Service

Secret Mountain Trail #109 is a 10.8-mile out-and-back route managed by the U.S. Forest Service in Arizona. The trail features modest elevation gain of 348 feet, making it accessible for hikers of varying experience levels. Located in Arizona, this trail offers a straightforward hiking experience without significant climbing challenges. As an out-and-back route, hikers will follow the same path to their turnaround point and back, allowing for flexible distance options depending on fitness level and available time. The relatively low elevation gain compared to the total mileage suggests a gradual, sustained climb rather than steep sections. The U.S. Forest Service maintains this trail as part of the National Forest System. Before heading out, check with the managing agency for current trail conditions, seasonal closures, and any permits or restrictions that may apply. Bring adequate water and sun protection, as desert and high-elevation Arizona terrain can be exposed. Plan accordingly for the full 10.8-mile round trip distance.
