The Arizona Trail AZT offered a steady string of stunning landscapes, at night the stars and Milky Way were amazing to observe, from the desert to high mountain ridges, the changes in vegetation from pinyon and juniper to manzanilla, cacti, and agave was spectacular.
2023 was a record year of snow in Arizona, some nights were very cold, it was a big challenge that made us physically and mentally exceed our limits.
A big thanks to all the trail angels for their generosity and kindness, they made me love this trail even more.
Depending on your pace, the AZT will require around six to eight weeks to complete, a total distance of around 800 miles.
I've started on March 6th to finish it on April 19th
The highlight of the AZT was the Grand Canyon, from the south to the north rim, it was overall one of the greatest experience I've done, an incredible hiking adventure.
