This hike to the U.S.-Mexico border starts on the south side of Highway 92 in Palominas and is about 10 miles round trip with very little elevation gain. The hike begins with a nearly four-mile walk down a dirt road to the border wall and then continues almost a mile along the wall to the San Pedro River. The route provides interesting and thought-provoking views. Another nearby route to the border, and to the start of the Arizona Trail in the Coronado National Memorial is shown in this Yaqui Ridge Trail video:    • Is this the most interesting trail in...
