Are you trying to see as much Red Rock Country as you possibly can in half a day? How does a moderate hike through Sedona's Secret Mountain Wilderness, an area featuring the regions most profound sandstone arches, mesas, spires, canyons, buttes, and fins sound!? We've got you covered for an adventure that will leave your cameras trigger finger sore, and your body ready for another day of big explorations.
In addition to your hiking guide, this experience will also provide a private shuttle driver, which will allow you to hike in a one-way direction diagonally across the wildest terrain in Sedona. This allows you to start in the northwestern corner of Sedona and end in the heart of Red Rock Country, which allows you to experience new and evolving views of the landscape throughout the entire outing. Traveling in a one-way direction maximizes your views and allows your guide to set it up as an "uphill" or "downhill" hike to meet your ability levels perfectly.
This adventure will combine two of Sedona's most classic trails, and accesses them in a way which takes you away from the crowds, and into Sedona's mystical solitude. Along the trail you will see Mescal Mountain, Devils Bridge, Lost Wilson Mountain, Mormon Canyon, a 300ft seasonal waterfall, and Earth Angel Spire. Standing over 800ft tall, Earth Angel Spire is one of the tallest sandstone towers in North America, and during snowmelt/monsoon season, the 300ft waterfall from the top of Wilson Mountain will leave you breathless...
