Trails
Hiking
Some of Sedona's most beautiful hiking trails are located right here at Red Rock State Park! Enjoy a variety of scenery from high juniper desert, to the Oak Creek riparian zone. Every trail comes complete with gorgeous rust colored views of red rock escarpments like Cathedral Rock and the Seven Warriors. A variety of wildlife and birds can be encountered during your hike here as well! Mule deer, javelina, coyotes, skunks, and numerous other park inhabitants may show up and make your experience unforgettable. During winter months, you hike will be filled with even more color and song than it is during the rest of the year. Tons of migratory birds winter here at the park for your viewing pleasure. You must stay on the trails at all times to minimize impact.
