• •Cathedral Rock — One of the most photographed formations in Arizona, Cathedral Rock rises 4,967 feet above sea level with its distinctive twin buttes resembling cathedral spires. The 1.2-mile trail to the saddle gains 740 feet of elevation over slickrock and is rated as one of the ten most beautiful hikes in the United States. At sunset, the sandstone glows an intense crimson that photographers call the 'Sedona red moment.'
• •Bell Rock — This distinctive bell-shaped butte stands 4,919 feet tall and is one of Sedona's four recognized vortex sites, where visitors report feeling subtle energy vibrations. The 3.6-mile Bell Rock Pathway loops around its base through juniper and pinyon pine forest, offering accessible trails suitable for all skill levels. Geologists estimate the Permian-era sandstone forming Bell Rock is approximately 300 million years old, deposited when this region lay beneath a shallow sea.
• •Chapel of the Holy Cross — Designed by sculptor and architect Marguerite Brunswig Staude, a student of Frank Lloyd Wright, this Roman Catholic chapel was built directly into a 250-foot red rock formation in 1956. The modernist structure features a 90-foot cross integrated into the facade and floor-to-ceiling windows that frame panoramic views of the Verde Valley. The chapel attracts over one million visitors annually and remains an active place of worship with daily mass services.
• •Tlaquepaque Arts Village — Modeled after the traditional arts village of Tlaquepaque near Guadalajara, Mexico, this shopping and dining complex was built in the 1970s by Abe Miller with authentic Spanish colonial architecture including hand-carved wooden doors, tile fountains, and vine-covered courtyards. Over 50 specialty shops and galleries feature original works by Sedona's resident artists, from bronze sculpture to Native American jewelry. The sycamore-shaded courtyards along Oak Creek make it one of the most photographed commercial spaces in the Southwest.

• •Devil's Bridge — At 54 feet long, this is the largest natural sandstone arch in the Sedona area, formed by millions of years of wind and water erosion cutting through the Coconino sandstone layer. The moderate 4.2-mile round trip hike from the Dry Creek trailhead winds through a pinyon-juniper forest before a final scramble up rock steps to the bridge itself, where visitors can walk across the narrow span with a dramatic canyon drop below.
• •Airport Mesa — Perched at 4,600 feet on the mesa that once served as Sedona's original airport runway, this viewpoint offers unobstructed 360-degree panoramas encompassing Cathedral Rock, Bell Rock, Courthouse Butte, and the distant San Francisco Peaks. Designated as one of Sedona's four primary vortex sites, the Airport Mesa Loop Trail circles the summit in 3.3 miles, and the western overlook is widely considered the finest sunset viewing point in the entire Sedona area.
