    Note: On your way to Sedona, stop at the beautiful Page Springs Cellars. The high altitude and volcanic soil makes this region ideal for growing Syrah, Merlot, Cabernet and Chardonnay.

    Note: Devil’s Bridge is the most famous hike in Sedona, known for its iconic arch that you can walk across like a bridge. The formation was created by years of wind erosion. It’s a great hike to kick off your trip in Sedona, as long as you don’t mind some crowds. This hike is extremely popular so the parking lot fills up quickly and there is usually a long wait to get a photo on the bridge.

The Desert Botanical Garden got beautifully laid out presentation of local foliage. Educational and serene. Took just over an hour to walk through. Lots of water refill stations. They also have a lovely gift shop.
