Apache Trail Arizona Scenic Byway 4K | Tonto National Forest
In this video we drive Apache Trail (Arizona Route 88) 25 miles to Fish Creek Hill Overlook & back, enjoying pristine Canyon Lake & desert mountain views along the way. The road is closed at Fish Creek Hill Overlook due to damage from a landslide in 2019. This scenic byway is a short drive from Phoenix.
This drive was made in late March, and the wildflowers along the road are endless.

I’m from Germany. Very beautiful video. I was in Arizona again for 6 weeks in November 2023 and drove here too. Beautiful. Unfortunately the road was also closed there. Thank you very much for the nice video
Arizona is a beautiful state Can’t wait to come back through it again ❤

Was great to see this road, unfortunately it is not allowed by the rv rental companies to drive it with an rv, so I will have to skip it on my next trip to The USA. Thanks for the video, greetings from a roadtripper from Germany!

That's too bad about RV's; could the Rental Agencies actually have GPS recording equipment "secretly" installed in their fleets that would betray customers that drive the "wrong" routes?? Perhaps the next best thing might be a short-term purchase, then a quick turnaround resale of a vehicle arranged well in advance; I don't know . . . I am aware of certain roads in New Zealand, Australia, Central/South America, the Indian Subcontinent (so much more of Asia as well), and, lots of Africa where the roads are so primitive, remote, and physically dangerous for ordinary motorists from civilized nations to drive, just barely wide enough for a small compact sedan to drive, with VERTICAL dropoffs of more than THOUSANDS of Metres, with grades steeper than San Francisco streets. Then there's the issues of regional, international, religious, and criminal strife. I can understand those situations.

That’s unfortunate, maybe they’ll allow you to at least drive the paved section of the road which is still a worthwhile trip.

@@AdventureEveryDay POOOHHH, PHOOEY!!!! They just want to turn ALL of our beautiful wild hinterlands into one GARGANTUAN AREA 51, and cram us impossibly into relatively small metropolitan zones, such as in "Soylent Green" or "Nineteen-Eighty-Four" with surveillance looming in every nook and cranny--privacy and solitude a thing of the past--and only the elite plutocrats and oligarchs having access to our wildernesses.
Your videos are fantastic! I watched Tom Andrews' channel several years ago where he drove on the Apache Trail. This was before the landslide. I had to watch the video in stops and starts. Those narrow roads got to me. Video cameras have come a long way since Tom's video. The trail beyond the landslide is scary as can be!!
It's great you got this at this time after we had got so much rain during winter. Wildflowers are awesome this year! Love the food, beverages, and music at Tortilla Flat. The one shop has a variety of craft soda pop.......I love the butterscotch. From where the road is closed at Fish Creek Hill Overlook it descends a steep 700ft in 1.5 miles to the creek and sheer cliff walls where it's not unusual to see Long Horn Sheep scaling them! A neat hike in cool weather if you're up for it (the rock slide occurred just before creek). I did see a sheep once right at the parking area for the overlook too.

I have been down this same road several times in the last three weeks. I have paned for gold in most of the mountain streams along the same path that your car was videoing . This was during March , 2024 for me when I did this.

I truly appreciate this rare video. The sceneries are superb and so distracted. And I sure hope all drivers "KEEP" their eyes on the road which is "VERY DANGEROUS" that it demands all drivers to slow down to 15mph or even to 10 mph at some curves. Or else your good trip would be ruined. This road leads to nowhere. It has a dead end. Thanks for the good video.

The drive was uploaded at normal speed and hasn’t been sped up at all by us. You can make the video play slower or faster by adjusting the playback speed in the video settings on most devices.
And people think AZ is nothing more than boring desert. Great video. How do you have your camera mounted?
what camera do you use for recording?
