The Devil’s Bridge trail roundtrip was 13k steps, 4.3miles and took us about 3.5 hours to complete. The first mile or so is easy! After that the trail becomes much more of a vertical incline. When you get to the Devil Bridge, the line that you wait for takes about an hour. You only have to wait in line if you want to take pictures and videos. If you just want to see it, then you can skip the line. You will probably experience a rush of adrenaline when you’re standing on the devil bridge, because if you lose your balance, you pretty much fall to your death. But just be confident, watch your steps and you’ll be okay. There was people of all ages from teenagers all the way up to people in their 70s. Only about 20% of the people were wearing face masks. The trail is dog friendly. There was part of the trail, that got really windy due to the forecast, and red sand was flying everywhere! Our sunglasses and face masks definitely came in handy! Overall it was a long & fun hike. I would say Moderate level.

The destination is beautiful. If you hike all the way from the parking lot this is a long hike. Bring a lot of water and snacks. Some of the steps are high. Wear the right shoes. If you drive down in a 4x4 with enough height to the base of the final leg the trail is about .8 of a mile. Much easier.

This is a cool place. I drove to the trail head and hiked up. Be careful if you go on Saturday as the entire Jersey shore will also be hiking the trail.If you want to blend in with the crowd its best to wear as little clothing as possible and if you have a tight shirt the shows nips that is the thing to wear.Parking can be a little tight so walk if you can, only room for maybe 10 cars if everyone parks fairly.

This is a tough trail (if you go all the way to the bridge), but well worth it. Our two kids were able to do it. I would recommend going super early to avoid the crowds. The parking lots fill and some people have to park out on the main road - which will only add to your hike.Towards the end, it gets more technical and climbing large rock steps, with lots of people waiting in line. Once to the bridge, there was a very long line to take pics on the bridge.Also keep in mind sunset, as the sun leaves the east side of the trail and where the bridge is well before sunset. The trail took us two hours round trip and there were people heading up, without headlamps, near sunset. Technically, you could drive your properly equipped vehicle past the parking lot and closer to the trailhead. We have a high clearance 4x4 and there is no way I’d take my truck up that rocky trail.

If you have a high clearance jeep or 4 x 4 you can drive a mile from the main parking lot to a small parking area closer. Even if you don’t, the extra mile hike is quite easy. Definitely worth the hike up the rocks to see the bridge, it was a fabulous day.

Beautiful at the top but a bit tricky climbing up and down on the rocks. There were some concerned parents on the climb. Definitely not for small children.

So the hike, for the most part, is relatively unnoteworthy until the last 10 minutes (closest to the bridge). There are breathtaking views of the canyon and the Devils Bridge is a must see. The rest of the hike is really unimpressive though. Is the 2.5-3 hour round trip worth it? Absolutely. Make sure to bring plenty of water and know that the parking lot is often full, so you need to park further away. Also note there are no bathrooms available except at the parking lot. Id you have a Jeep or other 4x4 with excellent ground clearance and suspension, you can drive closer to the main Devils Bridge trailhead (which knocks off about 3/4 of the relatively unnoteworthy part of the hike).

Highly recommended. Spectacular views once you reach Devils Bridge. Its quite a long hike from the parking lot just to get to the base of the mountain, and you have to hike uphill once you reach the base. I recommend taking the Chuckwagon trail from the parking lot, instead of the Dirt creek trail. You get really good views using this trail, and its not dusty like the dirt road. Start really early in the AM to get good parking, and its not as hot as later in the day. We started at 6 AM.

Great hike. Gorgeous views. Some steep parts but for the most part it is a easy hike. Nothing to crazy.

Amazing hike. It was beautiful and so worth the climb at the end. We went at 6am before it got hot and Id recommend going as early as you can to avoid the heat and to wear plenty of sunscreen.

Great trail with spectacular views. Lots of photo ops. Do not recommend this trail for small children. Or for those with a fear of heights.

Start early and avoid all the people. Great parking and a great trail. In my top 10 hikes. Take your time and look for the little things along the trail. Jeff Mullins Photography Adventures. Happy Hiking!

Sedona is one of the most beautiful experiences on earth.The parking lot can fit about 20 to 30 cars with more parking outside.The trail map is easy to follow.It is important to bring water, hat, sunblock, and hiking shoes on this trail.The hike only a little over 4 miles round trip.If you have a 4x4 or Jeep, you can driving up halfway but you will need a permit to do that.The view of beautiful red rocks are amazing, and it provided me extra motivation for the hike.The trail layouts beautifully within the panoramic of dramatic carved canyon.The awesome red rock cliffs are like the garden steps in nature’s staircase, which keep going up and up.them don’t forget to check out the scenery, which gets better and better with every step you walk up.This was my first time hiking in the red sands, which are light as a feather, thinner and softer than beach sands.However, it does get dusty and unpleasant when a 4x4 or Jeep drives by.When I was close to the bridge, I could hear the laughter and giggling of people up ahead.The arch rock is very cool, though it appears skinny and scary from the side.I will come back this trail next time and hike down under the arch rock.I left this trail with breathtaking memories and a camera full of beautiful pictures.

This is not a difficult hike by any means and actually kind of short. The parking situation is not great... I walked 2 miles just to get to the trailhead.. also once you make it to the top of the hike you wait in line for FOREVER just to get a picture like Im posting (literally 45 min and when I left the line was twice as long). Yes the views are stunning, but if youre not looking for that perfect Instagram pic, Id suggest doing a different hike.

A good hike. The end of the hike is very steep. The scenery is beautiful. Loved every second spent on the trail.

Very neat place to visit. The views and picture opportunities are incredible and are a must do. Go early to beat the rush as the picture taking on the bridge is slow. Also the end of the hike near the bridge is steep but worth it. Nearly four miles round trip from the main parking lot so bring plenty of water. Do it!

If you don’t get there early enough you have to park on the road and walk an extra quarter mile. Take a 4x4 car if you can too! That’ll save you some walking. Beautiful hike — expect to wait on a busy day up to an hour to take a picture out on the bridge.

Great hike, Ive done this trail several times, love the views everytime. Anyone can do this! Might have to wait in line to get your photo on the bridge but its worth it. Have trail manners, please.

Wow just wow. It was SO HARD but very worth it. The view was insane and that rock is so high up. It was extremely hot when we went (July) highly rec coming during better weather but it’s doable. Bring enough water. We were lucky enough to hop on a back of a truck on the way back. So great!! Must see in Sedona.

Don’t bother going in popular months of Sedona. You walk a dreadful hike just to finally get to the base of the mountain and there’s a line of people with a two hour wait just to get to the top.Tourist trap. Beautiful hike though.

An easy hike to the ever popular Devil’s Bridge in Sedona. Parking can be difficult but hopefully you can find a spot. If you don’t have a solid 4x4, you’ll have to park in an asphalt parking lot and then hike up a dirt road for about 2 miles. After that, you’ll be on the actual trail. Great photos and a beautiful hike overall. There can be a long line to get a photo on Devil’s Bridge itself and I, personally, did not feel like waiting. Are some side trails to explore as well. Hike with photo stops included was about 2 hours.

Stunning views to get to the bridge, a lot wider than some photos make it look! We went around 5am to get a head start and beat the crowds, we had the bridge to ourselves for almost half an hour! The rock scramble was strenuous for a bit but the end result made it so worth it

Be prepared for a long hike on a rocky road if you dont have a 4x4. Otherwise the hike up is exciting and views amazing. Alltrails app has a good description of the trail.

Worth the view!Most people do not have their masks(aka not following Sedona guidelines) with them while hiking. Im not saying wear a mask your entire hike, but have it ready for when youre going to pass people.However easy to avoid most people, even at Devils Bridge spot.TIPS:-The bridge is not as narrow as it appears in pics. Walk on it, totally worth the picture!-If you have 4-wheel access, do it. Cuts the hike shorter but very very bumpy drive.-Go to restroom at parking lot before you start your hike unless youre cool with a more adventurous restroom experience.-Hike from parking lot(without 4-wheel drive) is about 4 miles roundtrip.-During summer go before 10am or after 4pm. The heat is no joke. Osprey water pack helped tremendously.

This place was seriously awesome. Its a 2 mile hike that is pretty steep in places but so worth the effort. Highly recommend you see this beautiful site.

Beautiful Sunday trip in February. Wonderful weather, light breezes. Its free!There are three trails there that converge at a spot about .7 miles from the bridge. The easiest trail is 3.6 or 3.8 round trip, the medium was over 4.5 I think and the difficult one was 5.8 round trip.We took the easy trail there and it took us between 1.5 -2 hrs but we accidentally took the difficult one most of the way back. The parts that we were on were fairly easy til that last .7 it wasnt overly difficult but you had to climb up some rocks at a few points.The views were awesome.I dont know if it was a park rule or just common sense but when you get to the start of the bridge, everyone formed a line and let individuals/family go out on their own to take pictures.The bathrooms were very clean and well stocked with toilet paper.We parked on the street and walked in as the parking lot was full (There are at least 2 parking lots I guess, so of you see a lot of cars parked on the street, its probably best to just park cuz we circled one lot and found no spots.

Take plenty of water and comfortable hiking shoes and you wont regret it.

Too crowded, doesnt worth it. First one mile of the road is easy, but very dusty because of cars, motorcycles and bicycles. Its better to make first half mile by Chuck Wagon trail. Then youll get on pedestrian but very busy path. So, you will climb up about half mile. We did it with 3 years old boy.

Awesome place and I highly recommend this place for everyone really awesome and nice

I wanted to do something different for my birthday & start my day in the beautiful outdoors..Devils Bridge was exactly what I envisioned & more!We started the hike from the Mescal Trailhead to avoid the ATVs and off road vehicles interrupting our outdoor, nature experience.To get to the Mescal Trailhead:-Set your navigation to Seven Canyons Golf Club (If you get to the Golf Club entrance youve gone too far)-Once you make a right at the stop sign onto Long Canyon Road, drive about 1/2 mile and you will see the hike entrance on the right hand side-The parking lot is very small but you can park on the roadside-Be sure to purchase a parking pass in advance, the day pass is $5/carThe hike is about 4 miles round trip and you MUST go early to avoid the heat & crowd. We started the hike at 6:30am and only waited about 10 minutes to get on the bridge.The air early in the morning is crisp and cool! Make sure you bring lots of water and are physically fit to do this hike, people have passed out from heat exhaustion. Hiking shoes arent required, just sneakers with good grip will do.

A long trail. Try to start early. You can even rent Atv or Jeep from downtown Sedona, so that you cover 2/3rd of your hike and save time. Also be prepared for a long line since a lot of people will clicking pics/selfies on the bridge. Roughly 30-45mins based on number of people visiting on that day

Really really cool rock formation a little bit outside the downtown area of Sedona. Like most trails in the area it gets busy very early so it’s best to get there super early if you don’t want to have a lot of hassle parking. The hike to the rock is fairly easy except one slightly technical part where if you have a fear of falling or heights you’re not going to want to continue. The view of the bridge is amazing but be careful... one slip and it’s over for you

This hike is so worth it! The first mile is mainly a jeep trail through the desert but the last half is through the forest and the last 1/4 mile is all uphill until you reach the bridge. Wear comfortable shoes with tread. I watched 2 people with flat sandals have to go barefoot because the climb is steep and can be slippery. The terrain is no joke. Bring water and snacks. Round-trip was just under 4 miles from the parking area and its mostly in the sun and on rugged ground. The parking area is too small and if you dont arrive early, youll be parking along the main road much further away. The roughly 15 minute climb itself is not too bad, unless youre out of shape. There are cliffs so it can be dangerous for kids.

Aww my favorite hike in Sedona. We got to the parking lot at 6 am we off roaded almost a mile in, then we parked and walked about a mile or so to the bridge. Since we got there early we had the bridge to ourselves after the crowds started showing up and there was a line to take a picture

Will say the views are great. But it is easily one of the most overrated hikes in sedona. Also if you have a side by side or a truck with 4 wheel drive, I would suggest going to the closer lot. Also bring lots of water.

Awesome Hike! Shade is spotty, and there are some portions at the top that you have to use your hands to help get yourself up. Moderate hike

This hike was amazingly awesome with a good challenge at the end, but was well worth it. Also google said 1.8 mi in and out. But its really 4 mi. In and out.

Great site and worth the hike. It has an easy trail that even families with kids can go. The parking is ridiculously small so go before 9am if you want to have a chance to park or better yet rent an ATV or Jeep from one of the local tour companies and get up even faster.

Beautiful and well worth the hike in. Moderate climb with some small rocks to climb up, but should be tolerable to most. Approximately 3 hours round-trip if you park in the main parking area and don’t have a high-clearance 4x4.

Relatively easy trail with good views, especially if you go close to sunset

Best to go early in the morning. We had a late start, so it was about 100F by the time we reached Devils Bridge. Its a beautiful view, but watch for high winds. Id recommend bringing a face covering so you dont eat too much sand... and lots of water, of course. The trail is steepest right before the top, so be prepared for a little climbing. As people will tell you, there will probably be a line at the viewpoint to take pictures, but lots of friendly people willing to help you out and take a few pics while you walk over to the bridge.

Absolutely gorgeous. Incredible to be here in real life. A bit of a hike to get back into here, but if you’ve got stamina and determination, so worth it.

Excellent option if you want a short and easy trail (less than 4.5 miles). Every step is a picture spot. You will find people all along the route but is not crowded.

If you have a four wheel drive vehicle you can make it to the trailhead with a very bumpy ride ahead of you. The hike is moderate to difficult at the end. When you feel yourself really climbing you know you’re getting close so don’t give up. The bridge is very impressive and you can actually walk across it if you have the nerve. It’s relatively wide once you’re on top, but hope it’s not windy when you get there!

The trail was long and had some very challenging sections. We made it to the top, but it was a workout at times. Beautiful views - could not be beat. The guidebooks say about 1.8 miles each way, but to get to the top I think it was more like 2.5 miles. It took us just over 3 hours to make it up and back down.

I loved this place and I will visit it again for sure ️.My trip was all over Arizona but this place is the best and my favorite. Get ready to hike and have your water and water and water and camera and snacks with you and good shoes for hiking. Long walk approximately 4 miles but it deserved it. It was difficult to hike

Nice trail, great views. The closer parking lot requires some high clearance, rough vehicles and during peak hours you can wait an hour to go out and take a picture on Devils Bridge.

Fun hike. Parking is about a mile from the trail head for normal cars and trucks. Then another mile from trail head to the bridge. Just the last bit is climbing. My 5 year old did it with no problems. About 2.5 hours with a group of 8 (4 kids 5 to 12).

One of my favorite things to do in Sedona, The devils bridge trail.*Go early (6:30 AM to 7:30AM) the parking spot its limited.*Take water, comfortable shoes and be ready to take Beautiful pictures. Tripod if you have one.*Before the bridge theres some awesome spots to relax and enjoy the view.

My Garmin mark 4.25 miles from the parking lot, be prepared for the temperatures is really hot in summer time but is worth it

Get here early is all I can say. Nice hike, some scrambling to get up to the arch, and then the views...

Good if you have a 4WD to drive on the trail. 80% of the trail is for driving if walking very hot and exposed, not fun. Even saw hiker holding umbrella for sun.

Always a nice hike and unique views. Biggest tip: drive a high clearance vehicle and drive to the actual trail head. Cuts out 50% of the hike!

Be ready for a good hike. Recommend you take a minimum 1 gallon of water, powerade per person, comfortable hiking shoes. Saw some w sandals.....wasnt goin well...... Good bit uphill, walkin thru trails and 4x4 road, sparce shade along trail.. as you near Devils Bridge, be ready for a stone stair climb. Absolutely beautiful views all along trail, and especially at Devils Bridge.

An incredible hike through a colorful landscape. My jaw had to be reset (kidding of course) so many times at the wonders I took in that were not created by man but by time. The hike up to Devils Bridge was a lengthy trek but well worth the effort. The views, panoramas and landscapes left one short of breath, but not short of energy in order to get to the final viewing point, the Bridge

We got a permit & drove back, still a rigorous hike. Very beautiful.

This hike is something. The views at the neighboring mountains are breathtaking. And the final spot, the bridge, is just out of this world.We hiked just before the New Years, and when we started, there was a blizzard! We were prepared and wore warm winter clothes. Then, after short time it ended and we enjoyed clear skies.The ascend gets steep and a bit slippery at times, so I recommend bringing hiking poles, they are always helpful.Sedona landscape is unbelievable. I wonder why it’s not a national park yet (well, technically it’s Coconino National Forest).Highly recommend. Awesome hike.

Only accessible by high-clearance vehicles like ATVs! Great trailhead, other than the difficulty getting to it. We arrived at this trailhead via the Mescal Trail/Trailhead. It was a longer hike to get to Devils Bridge, but well worth it!

The first mile of the trail is on a off road trail, so you gotta be watchful for jeeps and other trucks. The second half is foot path only, and the last half a mile is really steep (and a lot of fun). The Devils Bridge is a nice reward for climbing that abrupt last section. The narrow part of the bridge looks like its pretty precarious, but its 5 or 6 feet wide.

Grate place to hike and the views are worth it for sure.

The hike has two options if you have a truck you can drive to the base of the trail and its about a 2 mile hike. I have 17inch size tires on my truck n I could have driven all the way. we chose to take the long hike just for the amazing views. it is about a 4.5 mile walk hike if you have a regular car. as you can see on one of my pictures a jeep flipped over on one of the turns. once you reach the base of the bridge it is a steep hike on a very thin trail. lots of people in and out of the trail. patience is a must as you have wait in line to take your picture on the bridge. worth every minute of it!!!!

Awesome. Well worth the over 2 mile one way hike

Heck of an easy hike, but the views and natural rock forms are enough to take your breath away.

Very very nice. Was so damn hot but worth it. Take a minimum 3 gallons of water per person. The hike is tough, not for the weak and chinstrokers

Nice, moderately challenging hike. You can make it more challenging using an alternate route. Unique arch formation is the payoff. Pretty easy hike until near the end when elevation starts increasing and it becomes moderately difficult with a couple of tall series of staircases. Go early to avoid the crowds and heat. And please, for the love of all that is holy, put your ear buds in your ear if you want to listen to your favorite genre of music. I can assure you that not all hikers share your taste in music. The only music I want to hear is that produced by the wind, trees, and birds.

A beautiful hile! It got very crowded towards the endbut I was glad to have taken the senic route via single track instead of the 4x4 road.

This was a challenging hike for someone who has never hiked anything, but accomplishable. We rented a vehicle and drove up to the trail head, so we only hiked 3/4 of a mile to bridge. There are two sections that are challenging to climb but definitely well worth the view. Just to put it into perspective, I am 375lbs and 6 1 tall and made it to the top and back.

Long hike and rather difficult to get the the actual bridge. Very popular and you hike a long a Jeep road so you have to watch for keeps every now and then. It is about 3 miles to devils bridge and about 5 to 6 miles round trip. To get to the bridge itself, at the end, it is a steep climb. The view is rather nice.

Great 4 mile hike that leads to one of my favorite spots in the area. The bridge looks scarier than it really is. If you go in the summer, there will be a lot of people, which is why I prefer right before winter. There have been times when I had the entire area to myself, which is extremely peaceful!

Beautiful views from top, moderately easy 4ish mile hike. Overly crowded on a Saturday morning though, best to go during the week!

Great trail about 3 mile walk one way if not in lot....very little hand over hand at the end and great views...

Top natural formation and nature trail in Sedona. A line for photos during busy times.

Loved the hike up to Devils Bridge! Wear proper shoes and bring water if you plan to do the multiple trails. Also, be prepared to climb a little, thus individuals may need assistance in certain areas.We went on a weekday thinking there would not be many people, yet we were wrong and had to wait a little while in order to get a picture on the bridge.The bridge from afar looks narrow, but is not. We took a picture of a group of 8 individuals. Have the person waiting in line behind you take your picture, otherwise you will have to do a selfie which will not show the beauty of the bridge and surrounding area. If you are afraid of heights dont look down while on the bridge, but do take a moment to look around you, the view is amazing!Will definitely be going back to hike other trails.You can also drive your vehicle, ATV, etc. (if 4 wheel enabled and good clearance) to a parking area so the hike to the bridge does not take as long. A car will not clear the rocks you have to go over so dont try. Most people taking vehicles were in jeeps or trucks.

After reading all of the reviews about the tough road into the parking lot, we spoke to our hotel concierge who recommended another route for our low riding convertible. We ended up parking at the end of the Mescal trail instead and walking through that trail to Devils Bridge. I would recommend this to anyone looking to avoid that bumpy road! The Mescal trail to Devils Bridge is a bit of a longer route, but it is a very simple hike with very little uphills and downhills.The Devils Bridge portion is steep only at the very end. It was a great hike for an awesome photo!

What a great place to explore! So very happy to say Ive been there. A bit of a scramble near the end but well worth the effort.

What a beautiful hike. They aren’t lying when they say the hike is dry and hot, so bring plenty of water.The parking situation was crazy even mid day on a Wednesday. But well worth it. And on top of that they are pet friendly, they just have to be leashed.

Great hike, being a new hiker there are a few places which require some climbing. I would suggest not following the road from the easy trail head, there is a loop out the backside of the parking lot. Limited parking so you may need to park on the paved road coming to the trail head!

The bridge was actually wider in person. The last leg was an uphill steep climb. Much easier going up than down. Take your time and you will be fine. You do occasionally get a gust of wind that comes through near the bridge. Be careful :) Hiked from Mescal trailhead. Took us almost 3 hours over all but that’s because we were enjoying the scenery. Also nice to look from then bottom of the bridge. Great free parking at Mescal trailhead.

The road to the trail head is severely undeveloped. The hike was relatively flat but involved some rock climbing towards the end and provided a good view of the surrounding area from the viewpoint near the devils bridge.

Nice long hike to the bridge through low trees and brush and varied rocky outcrops. It is very accessible to most and offers some great views. On the day I went there no crowds and only a handful of hikers all day. This was weekday but may have been just luck.

Harder hike than most would expect. Take a 4x4 to the trail head instead of hiking from the parking lot. The hike from the parking lot to the bridge is moderate not easy but the views are worth it. Take lots of water and enjoy.

So much fun. Be careful with dogs. Steep spots and other dogs will be on trail

Beautiful hike up to the bridge. It starts off steady but as you approach the bridge the hike becomes steep. We saw a lot of folks with dogs. The pups seem to love the hike too!

Great and unique place, but on the standard route you’ll see hundreds of Jeeps until you make a turn to a smaller trail. Perfect in late February or early March, as there aren’t too many people around. (Some minor hiking necessary to get there)

Insanely gorg!!!!! We went in Feb 2019 lots of snow and ice. Recommend a walking stick and spiky shoes for the last leg of the hike. Breathtaking views! *parking lot has very few spots. We arrived 1115am - waited and circled for 20 min till we found someone leaving.*

Devils Bridge is a must do hike. The bridge itself is amazing and you have to get your picture, but make sure to go as early as possible as this becomes very popular and could end up waiting a significant amount of time to get your picture.The hike up to devils Bridge was beautiful as well. You have 3 trails you can take as well as if you have a 4x4 you can drive much closer. But I recommend walking atleast the medium level hike as you get more amazing views.

Very easy hike (4.3 miles round trip from paved road), kind of overcrowded depending on the day of week. Awesome scenery all the way around!

Great trail for families of all ages and pets. Arrive early to get a good and safe parking spot. The trail starts off wide. But when you a few feet away from the top. Its super tight. So if theres large groups you will be waiting in line for the famous Devils Bridge picture.

We were hesitant to do the trail at first but we ended up going on a Pink Jeep tour with an amazing tour guide. The views at the top are like no other. Highly recommend getting a tour guide if you are not a every day hicker. We went at 8am so there were not too many people up there. Bring enough water. Some of the tracks are a bit tricky. Please make to wear good hiking shoes. I would not wear tennis shoes!

Absolutely gorgeous hiking trail in Sedona! One of our favorites. Parking is very scarce, and you’ll likely have to park along the road and walk. I believe we ended up about half a mile from the trailhead. Lots of other people out on the trail, as the weather was absolutely gorgeous. It’s a fairly easy hike, except for a very steep part right at the end. Easy enough for all levels of hikers. Make sure to bring lots of water!!!

Great quick hike to the top, try without hands for a good challenge. Достопримечательности!!

My goodness is this place gorgeous. As someone who does not work out very often I was worried about this trek but it wasnt as bad as I expected. I felt like the longest part was just getting from the parking to the trail head. But the dust kicked up by that passing jeeps and atvs is 100% worth it. The views are amazing.

This is a 4.2 mile moderate level hike. Parking lot was full when we went around 10 am, we parked on the street. Initial 1 mile was easy and flat. The last one mile was climbing on rocks, but nothing very difficult. The bridge is not very risky unless one tries to do something crazy. While we were there, we saw few very lovely couple proposals on the bridge. Overall a beautiful hike.

Absolutely worth it. I visited in February and it was not that busy which made this even better. I hiked it with my mom, she is in her late forties and not a hiker. It took us about an hour and 40 minutes to the bridge, moving at a walk with occasional breaks. The beginning of the path is super easy and then continues to get more difficult and steep. We also made this hike about an hour and a half before sunset. It gets very cold at night in Feb in Sedona so be sure to pack for the cold and if you decide to hike this close to sunset, bring flashlights. We spent about 20 minutes at the bridge and our hike back was just over an hour, we move fast in the dark! :)

Short hike, relatively easy. But not really any views until you get to the bridge. And there it can be very crowded. More than half of the hike is on the dirt road where off road vehicles are driving by. If you want to feel like youre out in nature, this is not a good hike.

Really nice and easy trail. Hike up to stand on the bridge is the most difficult part. Really nice experience. I do recommend to do this trail in the morning when the sun is shining over your head all the time. My husband and I really enjoyed it.

Beautiful hike worth the trip! Dog friendly! Bring plenty of water.

Beautiful hike but its not for beginners. Go early in the morning, bring lots of water and/or your camelpacks. The last stretch of the hike is straight up and a little tricky.

Really great hike with incredible views. One thing to note is half the hike is just getting to the trailhaid via an access road that is only accessible on an ATV or similar. No cars would be able to traverse it. Maybe a Jeep.The hike itself is lots of fun but is very popular, so expect traffic.

If you’ve ever visited Sedona this is probably one of the hikes people have suggested along with Cathedral Rock. This trail is relatively easy and can be done in about 2 hours round trip. When looking for the trail we found that google maps sent us to a residential area as opposed to the main trailhead. Because Sedona has dozens of trails that intertwine with neighborhoods you need to be aware of this going into it. For the most part, there will be signs leading you towards the trail as you get closer so we suggest following those to find designated parking areas. Although some of the more popular trails have some parking lots they only fit around 20-30 cars and on busy weekends these trails can see hundreds of visitors throughout the day. Many people often park on the dirt off of the main road leading to the trail but be sure that you do not park in areas that will get your car towed. From the parking lot there is a relatively flat but rocky trail for over a mile leading to the incline portion of the trail. It is very common to find pink Jeep tours and other vehicle tours or common off road vehicles driving through this portion so be aware of that. After this section it is slightly more difficult but can be done by just about all skill levels. Once at the top you will usually find a long line of people waiting to take their pictures on the bridge. You will normally need to ask someone to take your picture but it is nice that you can get the shot with no other people in the picture. Overall this is a nice and short hike if you’re ever in Sedona and want some amazing golden hour shots!- @wanderingwithustwo
