Smooth and fast is the name of the game 6.6mi loop of the McKenzie Ranch competitive race course. Please ride clockwise. It is the responsibility of all non-bike riders in all directions and riders traveling the opposite direction to yield to those riding clockwise.

Lozen Loop is named after Lozen (c. 1840-June 17, 1889), a female warrior and prophet of the Chihenne Chiricahua Apache.

      Lozen Loop. Good trail. Pretty in a desolate sort of way. Little bit of rock with some flow. Biggest downside is the 2 mile washboard dirt road to get to the trailhead.

      Rode Lozen, Daheste and Hohokam today for first time.
      Very fast & flowy but....the first two loops very dry with much loose on the shoulders so keep speed down in turns. Dirt road up to trailhead will rattle your car. Hohokam west side parking was empty and saw no threatening signs. No critters on trails.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
