Fuel up on breakfast this morning before stepping back in time along Sedona’s old wagon roads (now trails) to a red rock saddle that offers sweeping views. The trail we hike is named for the overhanging rock that shelters part of the route from the sun and is a Sedona must. Prepare for exhilarating steps up Schnebly Hill for vistas and panoramic views of the canyons below. Along the way, your local leader will fill you in on the history and story of T.C. Schnebly and his wife Sedona, the town’s namesake.
If time permits, you’ll head to the historic mining town of Jerome, Arizona, tonight. Jerome, a 19th-century mining town built on the side of a steep mountain, is one of the most unique places in America. Your local leader will give you a walking tour of the switchbacking streets, staircase sidewalks, haunted buildings, and fascinating history of this quaint Arizona gem. Before returning to Sedona, you’ll enjoy dinner in Jerome’s most historic and charming restaurant.
