The colorful collection of buttes, pinnacles, mesas and canyons surrounding Sedona is famous the world around for its red rock vistas. Over the years, this area has served as the setting of many western novels and movies and has been the subject of uncounted paintings, photographs and other works of art. The remains of ancient wetlands, these crimson cliffs have been carved by the forces of the desert into one of nature's most magnificent masterpieces.
No matter what you do in Red Rock Country, you're always sightseeing. Ways to get even closer to all this scenery include: hiking, horseback riding, taking a scenic drive, sliding down a natural waterslide, picnicking, camping, taking lots of photos and fishing in Oak Creek.
The Coconino National Forest has implemented the Red Rock Pass Recreational Fee Program. This innovative program is designed to increase visitor information and conservation education services, enhance the recreation experience, and perpetuate a healthy forest ecosystem. Learn more about this program at the Red Rock Pass page.
Red Rock District Office Moves to New Location. Situated on a site just south of the Village of Oak Creek on highway 179, the new facility will serve as our gateway to Red Rock Country with an expanded Visitor Contact Center encompassing some 5,000 square feet including an outdoor patio as well as the 7,000 square foot administrative headquarters for the Red Rock Ranger District.
