About Ramanote Canyon
One of the lesser known canyons in the Atascosa Highlands is Ramamote Canyon. Nestled on the easterly slopes of the Atascosa Mountains. It lies roughly 5 miles west of the town of Rio Rico and just south of the better known Peck Canyon.

To get there, take Camino Ramanote road west and go to the end of the pavement. Continue along the well-graded gravel road a mile or so to a large corral. The road makes a sharp turn to the left and follows the ridge toward the near by mountains.

A hike can be done from the corral by parking there, walking down into the canyon, and then following it upstream. We chose to drive out the ridge about another mile to a fork in the road. The left fork takes you down the ridge to a small reservoir used for livestock water. From Hiking Ramanote Canyon blog
