Sedona's red rocks are a sight to behold and hiking among their canyons and mesas is a wonderful experience. The many trails are mapped and marked and offer all levels of challege. The nice thing about Sedona compared to the Grand Canyon, for example, is you hike out and up into the hills and return downslope to the lower level ground. It is the opposite in the Grand Canyon which means the most difficult part of the hike is the return when inexperienced hikers may be fatigued. A nice vacation loop can include hiking in Sedona, a tour of the Grand Canyon, and a finish in Las Vegas.
