There are a few things to do in Sedona that are absolutely on the "must-do" list. Sedona is most known for its breathtaking red rock formations, famed vortex healing energy, outdoor recreation, and luxury accommodations. But how to best experience these things is really up to you. From hiking to jeep tours; meditation to week-long retreats; picnicking amongst the red rocks to mountain biking, or staying at cozy cabins or 5-star resorts on the creek; there's no one right way you MUST experience all that Sedona has to offer. But as far as the "must do" list goes, this is what we recommend:
Sedona is divided into four sections roughly: Uptown Sedona, West Sedona, Oak Creek Canyon, and the Village of Oak Creek. All are still considered “Sedona”, but with the popularity of Sedona comes traffic. Knowing what things there are to do in each area will help you make the most of your time here.
This part of Sedona is basically “Downtown Sedona”. It’s where the majority of the shops, restaurants, and art galleries are located. You can easily park your vehicle here and spend half or a full day exploring the culture of town. Many tours pick up from Uptown Sedona, so this is place to start your vacation whether you’re just getting your feet wet or are ready for an immersive Sedona experience.
West Sedona is located to the west of Uptown Sedona. There are quite a few hotels in this direction. There are some fantastic shops and restaurants out this way, but you’ll either need to drive to each location or be ready to walk. West Sedona is the perfect place to stay if hiking is the thing you want to do in Sedona. Many of the trailheads start in this area making it a favorite location to stay when exploring the trails is on the top of your list for things to do.
Oak Creek Canyon is located northeast of Uptown Sedona. The road that takes you there is lined with oak trees growing along a clear creek backdropped by towering canyon walls. It’s quite possibly one of the most beautifully scenic drives in Arizona. Here you will find Slide Rock State Park and Grasshopper Point swimming holes. This area is also popular for fishing, camping, and generally staying shaded and cool during the warmer months.
This part of town is located south of Sedona. Visitors coming from Phoenix will drive through the Village of Oak Creek before getting into Sedona proper. This is where the famous Bell Rock and Cathedral Rock are located. Also in this area are some highly-rated restaurants, golf courses and high-end accommodations. But some of the more budget places are located in the VOC as well. In general, you can find more budget lodging here than in Uptown or West Sedona.
