Gateway Trailhead Parking

Post by ultrazona »

Does anyone know of any good location for overnight parking near the Gateway Trailhead in the McDowells? I spoke with the conservatory and they said overnight parking is not allowed at the trailhead. I was considering the CVS but if anyone has a better option I would love to hear it.

You might consider the Horseshoe trailhead parking area. It's behind the health club north of the Gateway TH.

For me, sometimes it's just as much about the journey as the destination.
Oh, and once in awhile, don't forget to look back at the trail you've traveled.
