Red Rock State Park

Red Rock State Park is a 286-acre nature preserve on the outskirts of Sedona, known for its striking sandstone formations and lush riparian corridor along Oak Creek. Easy-to-moderate trails loop through juniper and cottonwood habitats, offering frequent wildlife sightings and photogenic views of Cathedral Rock. A small visitor center features geology and ecology exhibits, plus guided nature walks and ranger programs. The park emphasizes conservation and low-impact recreation, making it a good choice for families, casual hikers, and photographers seeking Sedona’s iconic scenery without strenuous climbs or crowds found on nearby, more popular trailheads. Day-use only; no camping.
