Oak Creek Canyon — Attraction in Sedona

Wow! It’s a must do hike! It’s fairly easy to walk some areas are tough but doable . We went on November 1st and the foliage is stunning. No Filters needed. The weather was crisp and cool especially in the shade. Maybe in the 50-60s so def needed a long sleeve or sweater and pants. Hiking shoes recommend to make it easier.

Also get there early . We got there around 2:30 , i wish we’d got there earlier to enjoy more of it and not be there so late we left around 6pm and it was beginning to get dark. It got dark very quick obviously the night animals start coming out and we heard something medium sized on the cave wall ....

Towering sandstone cliffs loomed majestically overhead, their rugged beauty contrasting with the lush greenery below. Alongside the river, charming homes nestled together, their proximity creating a cozy, community feel. Each bend in the road revealed new vistas, a reminder of nature's grandeur, as we journeyed deeper into this...

It's one of my favorite places to visit. There's Slide Rock, the creek that runs through, a coffee house, a trout farm where you can fish and cook the fish you caught right there at the farm. There's cabins and campsites. It's near Sedona, AZ. Beautiful views and an amazing place to...
