Health & Fitness
The Madison is a great place to start your day! They host some of the best yoga and spin classes (party on a bike is unlike any spin class you’ve attended) in the city, and after class they have a great little restaurant with dress juices, snacks and healthy breakfast & lunch options!
The Madison Improvement Club
3802 E Indian School RdBest views of Phoenix!
Make sure to give yourself plenty of time and bring lots of water. This trailhead parking lot fills up quickly and you may be waiting to park. The full hike can take 2-3 hours.
Please note: THIS IS FOR EXPERIENCED HIKERS ONLY! The terrain is steep and uneven and you’ll be sharing a very narrow trail with hikers moving up and down.
