Sedona - Oak Creek Canyon

 
Oak Creek Canyon is just upstream from Sedona, south of Flagstaff. It has dramatic rock formations and dense forests, and is particularly beautiful in the autumn. Highway 89A, between Sedona and Flagstaff, follows the canyon, offering some beautiful views and challenging driving. Sharp corners and steep hills make this a road you will want to drive during the day and try to avoid after dark.

Nonetheless, the drive is one of the local highlights.

Two of the main attractions along this route are Slide Rock State Park and V-Bar-V Heritage Site. One of the most noteworthy sights is Cathedral Rock, an often photographed butte that reflects in the still waters of Oak Creek. Oak Creek is also noted for its trout fishing.

Oak Creek Canyon is part of Coconino National Forest.
