The Tom’s Thumb Trail is a rewarding hike up an iconic local peak with great views at the summit. Hikers will navigate a steep section then proceed along a ridge to The Lookout viewpoint. The trail follows an out-and-back route. Because of the steep sections, most consider this to be a hard hike. This trail is very popular with Strava members in the Phoenix and Scottsdale area. Check out the photos below to get a sense of the great views you’ll find at the summit.
