Confirmed from Pacifica Way Trail Head's own listing, the park or land manager's website, and runner reviews. Blank cells mean we could not verify that fact — we would rather say "not reported" than invent one. There is no Easy / Moderate / Hard rating on this page on purpose: a one-word difficulty score tells you nothing about whether a trail suits your run. Surface, distance, shade and hours do.
Paved and unpaved paths for walking, hiking and biking on desert terrain.
What runners say about Pacifica Way Trail Head
“Very nice walking experience with great views along with the history.”
Definitely recommend for anyone who prefers walking trails instead of hiking. The view of the lake is amazing. 🫢 If you're wanting to clear your head or get fresh air, this trail is definitely worth it.
Just about any kind of hiking, mountain biking or scrambling you want do. Bring water, it's desert and or mountain scrambles if you want. Great parking area at the McCulloch trail head for just about any kind of trailer, truck or combination you may have. Terrain for anyone with children, or trail running.
Well maintained parking lot with easy access to the trail. It was a nice ride starting here to the Hoover Dam and back. Amazing views and a well kept path that is paved and unpaved (dirt/gravel).
Love exploring the incredible terrain, my dogs like chasing the rabbits. Great rock hunting!!
