Tortilla Flat, AZ



Sunday was a ride to Tortilla flat. Another beautiful day in the desert. Mid 80's and clear.  
Heading out of mesa toward the east on Apache trail highway. The mountainous terrain and winding roads makes for a fantastic motorcycle ride.
 A quick stop at Canyon lake was welcome before we headed off to the town of tortilla flats. Population 6.  Tortilla Flat 
Tortilla flat is an authentic remnant of an old west town, nestled in the midst of the Tonto National Forest, Superstition Mountain Range. As well as being home for six adventurous people, Tortilla Flat has a charm that has surpassed time.


Tortilla Flat started out as a stage stop in 1904 and neither fire nor flood has been able to remove this historic stop along the Historic Apache Trail.
Mosey down the boardwalk and visit the Superstition Saloon. Real saddles serve as bar stools where you can enjoy a cold brew or sarsaparilla. The unique wallpaper is really dollar bills from visitors world wide.
Our Restaurant serves the biggest burgers, hottest chili and the coldest drinks everyday. The Gift Shop will surely supply your needs for the unusual.


Arizona definitely has a wide variety of riding, with very scenic landscape and challenges for the beginner to the experienced rider. Thanks again to Chris and Patty for a great weekend.
