Red Rocks, Sedona, Arizona, United States Mar 18, 2025

Sedona, Arizona, is a place where nature, history and spirituality converge amidst stunning red rock formations. These fiery sandstone creations, part of the Schnebly Hill Formation, were shaped over millions of years during the Permian Period as sediment accumulated in an ancient sea. Over time, erosion has further sculpted Sedona"s landscapes, which now glow brilliantly at sunrise and sunset. Notable formations such as Wilson Mountain, Seven Sacred Pools and Cathedral Rock offer iconic views. Native American tribes called this region home, leaving behind awe-inspiring rock art, cliff dwellings and pueblos such as Montezuma Castle and Tuzigoot.
