Courthouse Vista — Attraction in Sedona

Hearing so much about Sedona's outdoor stuffs to do, areas to relax by the water, we just had to check it out! • The drive to Sedona from Flagstaff was short and scenic. Seeing all the Ponderosa pine trees and red rocks alltogether is another level. We already planned a couple of places to visit with short hiking trails.

We decided to drive to Courthouse Vista, a popular trailhead hub with red rock views. From there we can already see the Courthouse Butte up close but we went climbing up Bell Rock to get a perfect view of the whole Sedona. It did not disappoint!

Bathrooms available were outhouses without running water or hand sanitizer, so bring your own sanitary solutions if you need...

Great trails here and if your a photographer this is one of the places you need to go. Take the Bell Rock Climb trail and you can get high up on to Bell Rock and get an unobstructed view of the valley, the climb takes around an hour from the parking lot and is well worth it. If you plan to hike this hiking boots are highly recommended, the trail up can be extremely rocky and can be challenging at times. I would not recommend trying this one after a rain, it would be extremely...
