VISTAS
Witness transcendent Red Rock beauty.
People travel to Sedona for the visual drama. Here we’re reminded again how wondrous the natural world can be. These once-in-a-lifetime views are memories you’ll always cherish. Stop for maps and information at the Red Rock Ranger Station and you’ll get your first taste. From the parking lot, a sweep of erosion-carved cliffs serves as notice that you’ve arrived someplace truly special. Hikers, bikers and admirers of the subline will appreciate the quiet loveliness of the Aerie Trailhead — especially as sunset bathes the surrounding cliffs in velvety soft light. Climb the broad back of Schuerman Mountain and see just how many iconic formations you can identify. This also makes a grand spot to celebrate the golden rays of dawn climbing over the horizon.
