About Sedona
Sedona is Arizona's spiritual heart — a small town nestled in a surreal landscape of bright red sandstone cliffs that glow in flaming orange and crimson red at sunrise and sunset. The energy vortices, where spiritual forces are said to be particularly strong, attract yoga practitioners, healers, and nature lovers from around the world. The Red Rocks form one of the most dramatic landscapes in the USA: Cathedral Rock, Bell Rock, and Courthouse Butte are hiking destinations that look different with each hour of changing light. The over 200 hiking trails range from easy walks to challenging climbs. The Devil's Bridge Trail leads to a natural stone bridge that hovers over a gorge. Oak Creek Canyon, north of Sedona, is often referred to as Arizona's little Grand Canyon and offers swimming opportunities in natural pools. The Chapel of the Holy Cross, a modern church built directly into the red rocks, stunningly combines architecture and nature. Sedona is just two hours north of Phoenix and pairs perfectly with the Grand Canyon (also 2 hours away).
