Hike 21 SP Crater

SP Crater is closed to public access from January through May to protect golden eagle nesting sites. Hike 22, Colton Crater, doesn't appear to be affected by this seasonal closure, but please obey all signs and closure areas.

Hike 24 Bonito Crater

The Park Service no longer allows cross-country hiking within Sunset Crater National Monument, so this hike is no longer legal. In addition, the pull-off at the start of the hike is blocked by rocks. Here is an alternative hike:

Hike 35 Marion Spring- new trailhead location. The Cross-F Trailhead has been moved just south of the old location as described in Finding the Trailhead. From the old trailhead, continue south on the old highway less than 0.1 mile, then turn right (west) and drive less than 0.1 mile to the signed trailhead at the end of the road. The new trailhead was constructed by volunteers working with the Arizona Trail Association. GPS: N 33 54.534', W 111 29.232'
