Super nice and quiet trail in the middle of town. Very close to freeways and Desert Ridge which is perfect for plans to eat after a beautiful long easy going walk. Came here on a whim and it was a great spot to have a leisurely stroll out in nature. We enjoyed the clear skies and warm sunshine on our skin. It was a wonderful experience!

Less people when I went at 2pm which was nice. Trails were flat so I was able to read a book while I walked the entire trail. Only dislike is the horse and dog poop frequent on the trail.

There's a good mix of paved and unpaved trails with varying lengths so you can easily adjust for how much time or distance you want to do. They seem popular - we regularly see walkers, joggers, bikers of all ages and on a few trails evidence of horses. Also depending on the season & time of day we see wildlife, especially quail and ground squirrels.

I hesitate to share this review since what we like most about it is how uncrowded it is. Attractive and peaceful. Single negative is there's lots of dog poop left on the side of parts of the trail by less considerate dog owners, which our own dog is unfortunately prone to sample. The dog loves romping around the place though.

Nice trail if you're looking for something quick and easy.

Ok for a stroll. A horse and bikers trail. Very flat and open.

Very quiet yet interesting walks and multipurpose fun. The community using these trails are an enjoyable bunch of people they will make you feel very welcome if you happen to run into anyone at all lol therea always a kind and genuine smile to be shared :)

I am six months into being an above the knee amputee. The trails are everything! I am still on crutches so trails with elevation are a no go. This trail made it easy for me to walk with my Beastly (microprocessor leg)and learn to use it. I went with a friend and really enjoyed it. If you are injured, simply learning to hike, have kids you want to take somewhere for a stroll, or simply an easy trail to take a break from the rocks, roots and elevation. Highly recommend this place!

Reach 11 is a Barrier Free area set aside for hiking, camping, spending the day together. The trail begins on the n/e side of Union Hills & Tatum and ends close to Mayo & Scottsdale Rd, the cities has put down a concrete trails that turns to a dirt path. Please remember to dress appropriately in jeans & hiking shoes, carry a first aid kit and water. Also be aware of all animal's, four legged & ones that slither, carry a kit for snakes. Respect the area and carry out the trash you make while in the area, and remember to bring enough water if you decide to walk the trail from water troth to Scottsdale Rd. Stay hydrated, stay well.

Great walk outdoors especially if you have a jogging stroller. I have been looking for a trail where I can take a walk with my twins n this is the one. Just go early.

I live this unassuming easy to reach little hike. Many times I am rewarded with pictures like these.

Flowing trails.. had a blast on 26" bmx single speed with dth Maxxis tires. Some deep sand spots on the inner trails... outer more used trails are hard packed due to heavier traffic. Really enjoyed this for layed back day.

Nice scenery for thunderstorms and cloudy days, mostly flat some big dips here and there. Overall nice peaceful place has a covered bench, but no water or bathroom.

Great facility, so pleased they support the community. Three separate events going there this weekend. Thanks for your hard work.

If you like gravel but don't like Cactus this is the place for you. Not much here even for scrubland but it's flat and if you just want to walk it's okay. If you're from out of town and looking for Flora and Fauna you'd be better off at a different recreational area.

Beautiful area for an easy hike to be able yo get out and enjoy our wonderful weather in AZ. I took my small did with me on the walk as well and she had no problems.

Awesome trails with some fun features for OneWheels and mountain bikes.

Wish the hours for the arenas were more. But they have so much to offer!

Nice

We had a great trail ride with my grand kids. This is a great park

Love it

Nice end of the day hike.

Great for a morning bike ride.

Nice walk. Hidden gem half way down Barrier Free Nature Trail.

Great place to spend a day

Good flat hike. Seems industrial at first but turns into a nice 2-3 mile walk.

This is a nice open space for a walk that make it feel like you are a little out of the city

Close recreation area to escape the city and walk, hike, bike, and run. Tons of trail distances, and fun little trails in between. It would be nice to have some more vegetation and better trail accessibility to nearby roads, along with markers stating mileage distance. Lots of bunnies.

Wonderful place to ride your mountain bike or run/walk. You forget you're a stones throw from the freeway or even in the middle of North Phoenix with all the trees and wildlife.

This is a wonderful park to walk in. Follow the path and you end up at a small lake. Take time to sit and be quiet to listen for and watch the birds. We saw many hummingbirds, one cardinal and other assorted birds. You will be sharing the park with people with dogs, on bikes and horses. We always have a wonderful time here just make sure you bring water, suntan lotion and a hat.

I really enjoy the Reach 11 Recreational Park!! It is located south of the 101 on Tatum, right on the other side of Horse Lover's Park, so you can do both! It is great for anyone who is wanting to take an easy stroll on the one of the many dirt/sandy paths and they also have paved paths that lead to a cute pond covered with trees! I am an avid runner and enjoy the easy, flat paths that can easily turn into a long run if planned! I see people on bikes, others riding their horses, walking their dogs, and other crazy runners like me😉. If you go in the summer, go early and bring lots of H2O! There is very little shade, so plan accordingly! And be safe! Marie

Nice hike.

Absolutely beautiful walk. Easy enough hike for those who cannot climb as it is flat and a lot of it is paved. A jewel in the middle of the city.

Really nice trail to do some easy gravel grinding on

Nice area with smooth dirt trail for horses and people to enjoy. Weather great in January but will be toasty in summer.

Easy to get to but not much for shade.

Nice trail. Not alot of people on am

Great place to hike around.. lots of trails and easy to bike also.. I walk my dog here all the time as it is down the street from my house.. occasional snakes in the summer but I've only seen a few.. I've been wandering around this place for about 15 years.. plus they have rodeos when there is no pandemic !

Enjoyable easy walk through desert right in the middle of N. Central Phoenix/Scottsdale. Convenient to everything so easy last minute plans work well. Great place for walking leashed dogs and for young children to experience our beautiful desert without having to take a day trip or much preparation. Worth the stop regardless of fitness level. Just enjoy the desert scenery! 💕

This trail was very quite and laid back, my kids even enjoyed looking at the horses on the trail.

There is a lost key on a boulder just inside the fence on the right side at the trail head

Great spot for an easy crank on the trails.

Lots of open area to fide fast. On the graded trail, you will have Almost no thorns to hurt pets feet or flatten a bike tire. Off trail its still desert, so use caution.

Nice and clean place to go visit

Muddy Princess run was funnnn

Thousands and thousands of mosquitoes

The horse park is a great facility to use for all equines activities

Very dull hike but flat terrain. Better go somewhere else.

Great for riding

Great complex for soccer and other sports tournaments. It gets busy during the weekends.

Nice place

Great place to ride your horse in any riding discipline

Tons of mosquitoes due to the standing water all around the area. Bring plenty of bug spray or you will be eaten alive! Other than the mosquito attack this is a nice flat hike. Very little shade so plan accordingly!

I love this area it is less than a mile from Desert ridge, but a mile walk and you are in a wooded forest with a small urban lake. Frogs ducks and minnows. There is a picnic table, and it is a nice quick getaway.
