Tortilla Flat, Arizona
The Superstition
Wilderness 
...one great 
motorcycle ride 
out of the valley...

This ‘wide spot’ in the road called Tortilla Flat is rated as one of the top ride destinations in Arizona due to it’s proximity to the metro area of the capitol of Arizona, Phoenix.  The twisty road and unrivaled natural beauty is a true biker’s paradise.  Located in the Superstition Wilderness along the Salt River, this scenic stretch of road is about a 40 mile round trip from Apache Junction.  The road is paved all the way to Tortilla Flat and soon after it becomes a gravel road that continues another 30 miles or so to the Roosevelt Dam.

...spring and fall 
are the best time 
to ride...

The best time to take this ride is in the spring or fall to enjoy the unique color of the local desert and mountain fauna. Although Tortilla Flat is privately owned and operated it is officially recognized by the state with its own post office.  The food at the Tortilla Flat Restaurant and Saloon is outstanding as well as the service.  During the high season don’t be surprised if it takes you a while to be seated.  Visitors come from around the world to experience the beauty of the Superstition Wilderness.

... a very twisty 
road with a 
low speed limit...

Tortilla Flat got it’s name from early travelers who were stranded on the flat when the river flooded.  They ran out of food with the exception of flour and they survived off of the tortillas they made with it.  Although you can’t see much of the Salt River along the way, there are three hydroelectric dams before the river reaches Mesa, Arizona.  The Mormon Flat dam creates Canyon Lake which you get a good view of on the ride to Tortilla Flat.  Take some time to check out the reference links on this page before you go.  This is a very twisty road with a low speed limit.  Take your time and enjoy the trip.  You can’t be in a hurry if you are going to Tortilla Flat!

Seligman

Seligman is not just another stop on what’s left of the old ‘Mother Road’,
route 66 in Arizona.  This stretch of the old highway that includes Seligman was designated as Arizona’s ‘Historic Route 66’ back in 1987.  This came about by the efforts of Seligman’s Chamber of Commerce.  Like so many other towns left to die in the wake of interstate highway development and decisions by ....            MORE !
