Written Directions

Start about an hour south of Tucson off I-19 in a town called Arivaca Junction. The route starts in Arivaca Junction as you simply head west out of town on W. Arivaca Road.

Scenery

Southern Arizona's best road within 100 miles with massive views of the desert and nearby mountains.

Drive Enjoyment

The only worry are cattle guards and the occasional cow. Great sweepers with instant elevation changes that makes the heart soar and all with little if any traffic! Beware the occasional cow and Border Patrol. I rode through two stops but they're nice guys doing a great job.

Tourism Opportunities

Arivaca has no fuel but a quaint little market with cold drinks and snacks. Remember, it's about the ride, NOT the food.

Fun road except the stretch west of Arivaca. As of late winter 2020 it was full of potholes. The road north to Three Points is also a scenic, enjoyable ride.

This is a great ride, but the road can be tricky. Like when they use that asphalt gravel to fill in the pot holes. PAY ATTENTION!
