From fiery red rock formations to art galleries and healing vortexes — discover the unforgettable experiences waiting in the heart of Sedona.
Start with Cathedral Rock Trail — short but steep, rewarding you with stunning views of the Verde Valley. For an easier route, try Bell Rock Pathway or Boynton Canyon. Bring water, wear sturdy shoes, and time your hike for sunrise or sunset to see the rocks glow crimson and gold.
Sedona is known for its “vortexes” — sites where energy is said to swirl and rejuvenate visitors. Popular spots include Airport Mesa, Cathedral Rock, and Bell Rock. Whether or not you feel the energy, these locations are peaceful places for meditation and breathtaking panoramas.
This architectural gem is built right into the red rocks. Its giant glass window frames an unforgettable desert view. It’s both a spiritual retreat and an Instagram-worthy stop — come early in the morning to beat the crowds and enjoy the quiet.
In the Tlaquepaque Arts & Crafts Village, cobblestone courtyards and vine-covered walls host local artists and sculptors. Browse galleries, meet creators, and see why Sedona has long attracted painters inspired by the desert palette.
Hop on a guided Jeep tour to explore rugged backroads inaccessible by car. Local guides share stories of Sedona’s geology and legends. Trails like Broken Arrow or Schnebly Hill offer heart-pounding rides and unbelievable views.
Head to Page Springs Cellars or Alcantara Vineyards for relaxed tastings beside the river. The Verde Valley Wine Trail connects small family-run wineries producing bold reds and crisp whites under Arizona’s brilliant sun.
For an unforgettable morning, soar over red canyons and desert mesas in a hot-air balloon. The calm silence above the landscape gives a sense of endless space — and makes for the best photos you’ll take in Sedona.
Sedona is an official Dark Sky Community, meaning minimal light pollution and extraordinary stargazing conditions. Join an astronomy tour or simply lie back outside town limits to see the Milky Way arch across the sky.
