- [Slide Rock State Park](https://viatravelers.com/places/slide-rock-state-park/) — Slide Rock is a 43-acre apple farm turned state park where Oak Creek carved a natural slide into the rock. Summer crowds are real — arrive before 9am.
- [Chapel of the Holy Cross](https://viatravelers.com/places/chapel-of-the-holy-cross/) — The Chapel of the Holy Cross rises straight out of Sedona's red rock buttes — it's one of the few roadside stops that actually earns the detour.
- [Devil’s Bridge](https://viatravelers.com/places/devils-bridge/) — Devil's Bridge is the largest sandstone arch near Sedona — the 1.8-mile hike is moderate, but standing on it with Red Rock views in every direction is not.
- [Bell Rock](https://viatravelers.com/places/bell-rock/) — Bell Rock sits right off Highway 179 — no long trail required. The vortex reputation draws the crowds, but the views justify the stop on their own.
- [Cathedral Rock](https://viatravelers.com/places/cathedral-rock/) — Cathedral Rock earns its reputation — the scramble up is genuinely tough, but that vortex energy and 360° red rock panorama make it Sedona's most rewarding hike.
