The land of the red mountains

---

---

Second time in Arizona. Last time was in the south, in Tucson region to mainly visit the Sonora desert. This time, I stayed in Sedona's region and visit the surroundings, including a trip to grand canyon.

The small city of Sedona is surrounded by mountains of all shapes and having many colors, but red is the dominant color.

Plenty of accommodations in the region.

There are 2 main aspects defining the region:

a-nature, landscapes, hiking trails, jeep and atv.

b-Arts galleries of all sorts, yoga, and other "cosmic things".

For me, first aspect is the draw.

City is surrounded by hiking trails, going in desert, forest, around or on top on mountains. We spend 10 days there, and we didn't do a third of all trails!!

Trails are well maintained and maps are available.

The views and landscapes are superb! I never took so many panorama shots!

In December, it can freeze in the night, but daytime temperatures are around 10-15 Celsius.



Hope you enjoy!
