Bronco Trailhead
Bronco Trailhead is hard to miss with six horse pens in the open-spaced lot. It’s the first stop before heading to Seven Springs. Bronco Trailhead is a favorite among horse owners and leads along Bronco Creek. Avid hikers enjoy this more than Cave Creek Trailhead as its difficulty level is higher. The site has parking for 40 vehicles plus trailers, six horse pens, and a manure bin.
