Pipeline Canyon Trail

Nice short hike down to the water. It has a perfect beach to enjoy. The only down side is having to carry everything in, but it is doable.

Easy trail and some great views. I really want to see a new bridge to add to the hike. Folks picnic at the end right at the water. No tables or benches as an fyi. There are bathrooms at the trailhead and a map. Quiet place and plenty of shade at the water's edge.

What a beautiful trail! I remember getting lost the last time I went, but I would recommend staring instead from the trailhead in Lake Pleasant Regional Park from N. Park Road (vs the North Trailhead- which can be super confusing).
From the N. Park Road, you can't get lost because there is a clearly marked singular trail that takes you down. You get treated to a scenic view of the trees and cacti dotting the mountains and from there as you continue to walk, a sliver of water peaks through in the canyon below. The water then widens and the view steals your breath away. The water is clear and beautiful and on a cloudless day- the water is a stunning shade of blue.
The trail takes you down to the shore so you can see the water lapping and get more scenic photos. Definitely I will be coming back! :)

Easy dessert hike. Some lake views.

Great views, nice trails, glimpses of burros, good bathrooms, and places to rest by the water. Went on a Monday so parking was easy. Lots of people out hiking but not too many. Good place to come back again and explore.
