The Arizona Peace Trail (AZPT) is a massive, 675-plus-mile loop designed for multi-day off-road adventures through remote Western Arizona. The route is not a purpose-built single-track but utilizes a network of existing mining roads, county roads, and sand washes. For dirt bike riders, it offers a long-distance journey through incredibly diverse terrain, ranging from remote deserts and canyons to pine-covered mountains.
Navigating this trail requires careful planning, and using a GPS device is essential for a successful trip. The official AZPT organization provides downloadable GPX and KML track files, which are the primary resource for navigation. Due to the extreme length and remoteness, riders must be completely self-sufficient, with pre-planned stops for fuel, food, and lodging. Before attempting any section, riders should visit the official trail website for the latest GPS tracks and updates.Dirt Bike Trail System
