Distance: 11.5 miles | Type: Out-and-Back | Time: 6 – 7 hrs | Level: Hard Wilson Mountain Trail was our favorite hiking adventure in Sedona.

Distance: 5 miles | Type: Out-and-Back | Time: 3.5 hrs – 5 hrs | Level: Hard Bear Mountain Trail in Sedona is a challenging hike that leads to panoramic views of red rocks, canyons, buttes, and mountains.

Distance: 1.2 miles | Type: Out-and-Back | Time: 1 hrs – 2 hrs | Level: Moderate – Hard Hiking Cathedral Rock Trail in Sedona at sunset needs to be at the top of every hiker’s Arizona bucket list.

Distance: 5 miles | Time: 2.5 hrs – 3.5 hrs | Level: Hard Hiking Honaker Trail was completely unplanned and yet one of our favorite trails we did during our Utah road trip.

Distance: 1.8 miles | Time: 40 min. – 1 hr | Level: Easy Toadstool Hoodoos Trail is an incredible trail we just happened to stumble upon.

Distance: 1.5 miles | Time: 30 – 45 minutes | Level: Easy Horseshoe Bend is one of those popular places that 100% deserves the hype and attention it has received.

Distance: 8.3 mile Loop | Time: 4.5 – 5.5 hours | Level: Moderate The Needles District of Canyonlands National Park does not get enough credit.
