Review:

The Siphon Draw Trail is named after its ability to ‘siphon’ water off of a large area on Superstition Mountain. A walk on the trail will take your through the discovery trail and to a polished slick-rock waterfall, which marks the end of the trail and lets your return the same way you went.

The hike is less than two miles and goes through the Lost Dutchman State Park, Tonto National Forest, and the Superstition Wilderness Area.

There’s a lot of history surrounding Siphon Draw Trail, much of which you can learn about at the Visitor Center. There are a lot of picnic tables surrounding the area, so you can bring a basket with you to enjoy lunch. Several of the strategically placed bird feeders and water ponds will attract flora and fauna for you to see while you’re there. A 35-minute day trip from Scottsdale, Siphon Draw Trail is a fun experience.
