Stroller accessible trails

Post by MjoWright »

Hello all! I just bought my daughter a BOB Sport Utility Stroller made for rough terrain, in hopes to get her starting hitting the trails with me. I was wondering if anyone here knows of any stroller accessible trails, this thing can make it through quite a bit, it's just extreme rock scrambling and narrow trails I'm afraid of. If any parents know of any trails that have worked for them I would greatly appreciate the info! We have already done Tumamoc Hill and Agua Caliente, which worked out great. Thank you in advance!

I'm not a parent, nor do I play one on TV :D , but I would think almost any of the trails around First Water would do fine. They're all relatively smooth and free of major obstacles. The Hackberry Springs Loop http://hikearizona.com/decoder.php?ZTN=539 may be a good start?
Good judgement comes from experience. Experience comes from bad judgement.

I saw a stroller and 4 young'uns at the spring.

Several of the trails at the McDowell mtns. should be good for strollers

a lot of Phoenix suggestions, to which I'll add
Waterfall Trail - White Tanks
Gila Trail - Estrella Mtn RP

more in season now
Rim Lakes Vista Trail #622 ( highly recommend IMO )
Mogollon Rim Interpretive Trail #615

no clue for Tucson

judging by the looks of that thing you can probably tackle most low key to moderate trails designed for mountain biking
