North Table Mountain Trail Group

Access Points

  • Pine View Road & Wyoming Circle
  • Peery Drive & Ptarmigan Street

This 1.5 mile trail traverses a southwest side of North Table Mountain below the cliff band. There are excellent views of the Golden Valley. The trail is moderate to advanced difficulty, with about 300 feet elevation gain from the north and about 400 feet gain from the south. There is moderate exposure to rock fall; many sections of the trail are rough and not suitable for strollers or bicycles, although neither are prohibited. There is abundant wildlife, including deer, coyote, fox, golden eagle, magpie, canyon wren, rattlesnake, and mountain lion.

The trail has three sections, with different qualities. The north section is an old bull-dozed bench and contours below the cliffs. The middle section is hand-built by volunteers led by the Table Mountain Conservation Fund and links the cliff section to street access. The south section, built in the 1950’s, is a single track rough trail that contours behind private property owners.

There is one very rough access to the top of North Table Mountain, which is presently 75% Open Space. The middle access is at the intersection of Ptarmigan and Peery Drives. The south access is on the extension of Peery Drive toward the Golden cliffs, near the deer pond just west of the upper dirt parking lot.
