Sedona is an artist’s enclave that attracts collectors and interior designers to its almost endless number of art and sculpture galleries, unique furniture boutiques and décor shops. Tiaquepaque is a work of art itself as a replica of a Mexican village built in Spanish Colonial style with many shops, galleries and restaurants.

For those vacationers that love outdoor recreation, there is a wealth of hiking trails for all difficulty levels. Don’t miss the trek into the West Fork of Oak Creek. Or swim, wade or tackle the natural water chute of Slide Rock.

The new age spiritual crowd often visits Sedona to experience its vortexes and their mystical sources of energy. There are also many archaeological ruins of historical prehistoric Indian inhabitants including the Palatki Ruins and Montezuma Castle just outside Sedona.
