Description: The Brown Canyon Trail is fun and tough to ride. It's a 6 mile loop and it dumps you back onto Ramsey Road about a mile up from the parking area. I listed this as a technical ride based on my current skills as an amateur rider, I wouldn't recommend this trail to a beginner. There are a lot of short steep rocky climbs as well as roots and small boulders to maneuver around. You will encounter a few soft sandy areas on your way up the canyon. Cross the creak where the Miller Peak Trail starts and climb up the fire road. This takes you to a fast downhill section before exiting back onto Ramsey Road. Enjoy!!

great trail, veteran or beginner you can still have a blast. Good technical challenge (which in arizona defines a bunch of rocks), a few good jumps/ drops, and makes a great circle. I might add that if you bypass the big climb back to the parking lot, and make a right at the next Y through the wood "gate", you can ride right by the old farmhouse to an established road that spits out right onto ramsey canyon just below the parking area.

This is a pretty nice trail to ride. I like to ride it the other way. leave the parking lot on ride up Ramsey Canyon Rd for about 0.5 miles, turn right on Brown Canyon Rd and ride for about 0.5 miles to the fork. take the left fork and climb climb climb up the road, until you get to the ridge with the views, then down the rocky bit to the single track trail and the rocky, swoopy, fast single track fun, then you have to ride some dirt roads and back to Ramsy Canyon Rd for about 0.1 miles up to the parking lot.
