About this site
Badger Springs offers a short trail for non-motorized users within the Agua Fria National Monument . The trail leads down the Badger Springs Wash to the Agua Fria River canyon, an area rich in archaeological resources. The wash may be wet or muddy.
The confluence of Badger Springs Wash and the Agua Fria River is the location of a fantastic panel of petroglyphs. At the confluence, hikers can travel either upstream or downstream to explore this high desert canyon. Most years the river flows through early summer.
Mule deer, white-tail deer, javelina and coyotes roam the area. Informational panels and a toilet are available near the trailhead. Toilets are accessible.
