Rillito River Parkway – Tucson’s “Loop”

From our store at St Philip’s Plaza, catch Tucson’s famous “Loop” shared-use trail system and head east or west from 12-16 miles per hour along a system of paved, shared-use paths and buffered bike lanes built on top of soil cement banks along metro waterways (dry washes), connecting the Rillito, Santa Cruz, and Pantano River Parks with the Julian Wash and Harrison Road Greenways. Wide, and smoothly paved along the Catalina Foothills, you rarely get on the roadway system, offering a truly unique way to see the Desert!
