Shopping Tour in Sedona

The best shopping in Sedona isn't in the malls — it's on the streets. From vintage stores to artisan workshops, spots like Chapel of the Holy Cross and Tlaquepaque Arts Village are scattered through neighborhoods that reward the curious walker. Wander further and you'll stumble on Airport Mesa — the kind of find you can't replicate online.

Sedona sits in the heart of Arizona's red rock country at an elevation of 4,350 feet, where massive sandstone formations sculpted by millions of years of erosion glow orange and crimson at sunrise and sunset. The Coconino National Forest surrounds the town on all sides, offering over 100 miles of hiking trails through canyons, mesas, and creek-carved valleys. Oak Creek Canyon, often called Arizona's mini Grand Canyon, cuts a dramatic 12-mile gorge just north of town. Sedona is also known as a center for New Age spirituality, with four primary energy vortex sites that draw practitioners from around the world. The town's Dark Sky designation makes it exceptional for stargazing, and its 300 days of annual sunshine illuminate the iron oxide-rich sandstone that gives the rocks their famous red hue. The Sedona International Film Festival each February and the thriving gallery scene along State Route 179 add cultural depth to the natural splendor.
