Echo Canyon Trail in Chiricahua National Monument is a winding, moderate intensity trail that leads you among unique rock formations and alligator juniper.
This is a moderate trail, with a good amount of up and down. But you won’t mind one bit, because you’ll be so awestruck with the scenery. The distinct unique green coated rock formations of Chiricahua National Monument are on full display for this trail. Note that the parking fills very quickly, so arrive early. And make sure to call ahead to see what (if any) restrictions are in place.
*Always remember to leave no trace – pack it in and pack it out!
