Some of the most beautiful hiking trails in Sedona are easy hikes as well. One of the most popular hikes is the easy nature trail near famous Slide Rock, a popular area in the Sedona/Oak Creek area. The red rock vistas and meandering creek are some of the most photogenic spots in
Northern Arizona.
There is also a well-developed system of trails in
Red Rock State Park, about five miles west of Sedona, that are geared to family hikes. The State Park offers ranger-guided hikes, and even a moonlight hike to view moonrise from a scenic spot. The park also offers a self-guided nature trail along
Oak Creek, to learn more about the plants and animals that make their homes in
Oak Creek Canyon.
