History Hikes: Presidio Santa Cruz de Terrenate

  • Date: 11/11/2023 9:00 AM - 12:30 PM  
  • Location: Presidio Parking Area
    In Balance Road off Hwy 82

Join a docent from the Friends of the San Pedro River on a walking tour of the Spanish Presidio of Santa Cruz de Terrenate. This fort was operational during the late 1770s, the centerpiece for a planned Spanish occupation of the San Pedro River Valley that failed. 

This is a three-mile round trip walk over trails and uneven ground. The return walk is gradually uphill. There is no shade and it will be hot on sunny days. Please realistically assess your ability to do this walk. Wear a hat, sun protection, appropriate clothing, and sturdy shoes, and bring water and a snack. Meet at the Presidio Parking Area (west side of the San Pedro River on Highway 82, turn north on In Balance Ranch Road (shows as Kellar Rd. on Google Maps), go 1 mile to parking area).  Admission is free. Donations gratefully accepted.

Info: (520) 508-4445, or email fspr@sanperdroriver.org.
