Since the legendary Lost Dutchman Mine has never
been rediscovered, the Superstition Mountains draw adventurers seeking lost
gold as well as recreational riches. Situated at the base of the Superstitions,
the park is an ideal starting point, fall through spring, for exploration
of the Superstition Wilderness. Also, one of the Phoenix metro area's most
popular desert lakes, Canyon Lake, is only a 30-minute drive from this
campground. Most visitors camp, picnic, or hike interpretive desert trails.
Lost Dutchman park is five miles northeast of Apache Junction off State Route
88.
This is a hike we will never forget. We
took this hike on my birthday. We has so much fun and wanted to make
it to the top. So Joe made his own trail to the top. Then on
the way down we ran out of water! That will never happen to us ever
again. I was never so happy to get a drink in my life.
