Anasazi Loop Trail
The Anasazi Loop Trail is one of five loops within the Campbell Mesa Loop Trails System, and it shortcuts the west end of Campbell Mesa Loop Trail to make a 2.7-mile sub-loop out of Campbell Mesa Loop Trail.
The various loops offer a wide variety of seasonal wildflowers, many examples of local birdlife, and frequent wildlife sightings. Visitors enjoy forested glades, broad interior meadows, and scenic views of Mt. Elden, Anderson Mesa and Mormon Mountain.
All five loops of Campbell Mesa Loop Trails System interconnect with each other.
Campbell Mesa lies within a non-motorized use area that provides solitude for visitors and shelter for wildlife. Walkers, hikers, cyclists, skiers, and snowshoers enjoy the trails in all seasons.
