Beautiful views and great hiking options! The trails are scenic and well worth the visit, offering some truly stunning landscapes. Parking can be a bit tricky, so patience is key—make sure not to park in invalid or restricted spots. Once you’re on the trail, the experience is absolutely worth it.

Gorgeous spot - easy drive or hike up. Slight edginess from fellow tourists in the early AM… to be expected 😉 sunset may be more affable hours. Sweeping view of the valley and pastel colors… beauty.

Beautiful at sunset. Get there early so you have time to park and hike up to the top. We really felt the energy of the vortex. My friend and I were sitting beside each other and had a completely different experience. Highly recommend! When it gets dark, it gets dark so bring a headlamp. Perfect spot for stargazing!

It’s not our favorite sunset spot, but it is one of the best no-effort sunset spots in Sedona. We’ll bring friends and family here to enjoy the view. My elderly parents can get around with zero issues here. Parking in Sedona always gives me anxiety but this lot is pretty easy and affordable. Just plan to arrive at least an hour before sunset to hike around and watch the light change because the traffic coming up the hill can get horrendous before the sunset.

Good view at sunset. A short hike up from parking area. Saw a wedding and a palm reading stand during the was up. Great view when on top.

Scenery is absolutely stunning, especially at sunset. If you’re visiting on a weekend or holiday, make sure to head there early—the road is narrow and one-way, and traffic can get heavy. Plan ahead so you don’t miss the beautiful sunset.

Beautiful. We ended every day watching the sunset and started every morning watching the sunrise. Breathtaking every time. Must do both at least once. It gets busy so show up early for both.
