Last Sunday Hike to Schaeffer Shuffle

  • 2900 Tom Mays Park Access Road El Paso, TX, 79911 United States (map)

Come explore the beautiful Chihuahuan Desert and learn about best hiking practices and the unique desert ecosystems.

Length: 2.6 miles
Trail Difficulty: Moderate/Difficult. Steep initial descent down old jeep road; transition to relatively well maintained trail with technical sections into the canyon, leveling out along the ridgeline, then another steep and technical descent down the backside before becoming an easy leisurely stroll down the trail. We’ll reconnect with the old jeep road and have one final steep ascent back up to the start of the trail.

Bring: water, snacks, flashlight, hiking boots/shoes, and comfortable clothes.

Optional: binoculars, hiking stick, camera, and a map.
