Peralta Road Dispersed

This is a beautiful place to boondock close to city limits. Many places to boondock along Peralta Road. Some of the spots are full of ruts as it is a popular ORV spot. I had cattle walk right through my campsite. Amazing views and Sunsets. Cellular service is fine for ATT and Verizon. I was able to stream tv and Netflix. Note: as you get further into the canyon it gets very spotty. I stayed 3 miles from the entrance to the state trust land. Very pleased with amount of areas to boondock. We stayed 3 miles from the State Land entrance. Spots close to road can be dusty as there is a fair amount of traffic on Peralta Rd. Scout out places down trails leading from main road. Spots for big rigs but a smaller unit gives you more options. Cell service gets spotty the further down in the canyon you go. Beautiful view and sunsets!

Scenic views on Arizona State Land in Gold Canyon. A permit is required for camping here costing $20 per year. You can purchase the permit here:

We got water about 25 minutes away at the Chevron (1143 N Ellsworth Rd, Mesa) where you can also dump for a fee of $15 or $10 with a gas purchase.

There are limited big rig friendly camping spots that are either along the road as you come on the road or after the cattle guard to the left which is where we camped on a small loop. Plenty of off-road camping if you have a smaller rig or 4 x 4 vehicle.

There was plenty of hiking down the road. We hiked the Wave Cave Trail that was a couple miles down the road. This spot is also close to the city for shopping with a grocery store right in Gold Canyon. Great boondocking views with the desert sunsets.
