Pantano River Park Trail Art

The Pantano River Park Trail has some really unique Loop art including Batty Biker and The Spoked Cathedral. The design of The Spoked Cathedral is reminiscent of a cathedral window, with a vegetative pattern on the lower section tying into the natural world. The star shape is based on the beautiful Arizona flag. Use our Google Maps to discover these works of art.
