The area around Sedona has been home to humans for more than 10,000 years, beginning with Paleo big-game hunters and Archaic hunter gatherers. Archaic rock art from these prehistoric people, along with that of the Sinagua who arrived around 650 AD, adorns the rock formations around their cliff dwellings. Nomadic hunter-gatherers – Yavapai and Apache – arrived around 1300-1450AD.

Top Ten Attractions in Sedona AZ

1. Exploring Ancient and  Historic Sites Near Sedona

Ancient Ruins Honanki and Palatki are cliff dwellings built nearly 1000 years ago by ancestors of the Hopi Indians, called the Sinagua. Beginning from about 1150-1350 AD, these two communities served as a home base for three separate cultures – the Sinagua, Yavapai, and Apache – who farmed and hunted in the fertile valley areas.

Each site has a considerable number of pictographs painted by artists who had learned to combine pigments with animal fats. There are also petroglyphic carvings in the stone which may pre-date the communities. The magical allure of these sites make them one of the most unique things to do in Sedona, and in the whole of the American Southwest.

Ancient symbols appear to reference the sun and our solar system, native animals and hunters, a solstice-based calendar for planting, and conquistadors on horseback.

Sites are staffed by knowledgeable Forest Service docents in both locations, open daily until 3:00 pm. Call Palatki Heritage Site for a tour reservation: (928) 282-3854. Note the road to Honanki is rustic and rocky. It may be challenging for non-high clearance vehicles. Our rental car made it safely, but it was very rough in spots. Roads to these sites may be closed during wet weather due to the risk of flooding.

Even though the distance from Sedona is only a matter of a few miles, it will take you at least 30 to 45 minutes to get to each site respectively. Once you arrive, a bit of non-strenuous walking and climbing is required to reach the structures and art. Unfortunately, they are not wheelchair accessible, but worth visiting for the non-mobility impaired.

Montezuma Castle National Monument in Camp Verde is a beautiful, five-story Sinagua cliff dwelling overlooking Beaver Creek in the Verde Valley. Perfectly sited in a natural opening with overhang, the structure was built of mortared masonry for a community of about 50 individuals. The impressive Visitor Center here includes displays depicting Sinagua and Valley history, and a gift shop. This is where you’ll learn that the name is a misnomer. Early settlers believed this an Aztec community.

Sedona Heritage Museum  Once a family homestead, the museum focuses on history from 1876 to the present. The museum currently houses more than 3,000 artifacts, about 30,000 historic photographs and 300 oral histories and videos, as well as a research library of over 500 volumes, numerous clippings and documents. Oral histories are online here.

Day Trip to Jerome – With an intriguing history which includes once being the fifth largest city in Arizona, Jerome is a 19th century mining town anchored on the side of Cleopatra Hill about 25 miles from West Sedona. Relegated to ghost town status as precious metal fortunes waned, by the 1950s only about 50 residents remained. Now reborn as an art colony, Jerome attracts visitors who are interested in its mining history, arts and crafts, antiques, wine tasting rooms and haunted attractions.

Jerome Arizona: things to do near Sedona
Jerome is built precariously on the side of Cleopatra Hill

Native Americans mined the hills primarily for copper around Jerome for centuries before the Spanish arrived in the 1500s. At the turn of the 20th century, Montana Senator William A. Clark’s twenty year old lease of the original claim started to produce, aided by technological and processing innovations. His operation would go on to mine over $1 billion in gold, silver, copper, lead and zinc deposits. An influx of immigrants from Ireland, China, Italy, Mexico, and slavic countries came to work. In its heyday, Jerome boasted over 50 Chinese restaurants.

Geologic faults, erosion and blasting from the mines combined with haphazard construction practice caused building collapses and dramatic landslides throughout Jerome’s history.  Some buildings fell hundreds of feet down the slope, including the town jail which survived intact and was merely re-opened in its new location.

A series of fires in Jerome’s early years was seen as possible divine retribution for its godless ways; at its peak Jerome boasted 15,000 residents (almost 80% of whom were male) who were served by a variety of brothels, saloons, and gambling houses. In 1903, a New York newspaper named Jerome “the wickedest town in the West.”

Prior to the Depression in the 1930s, Jerome had evolved into a prosperous company town with the mining companies providing liberal benefits and public works including sports fields and courts, swimming pools, a public park and library. Jerome was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1967. Nowadays there is a definite counter-culture artsy vibe in Jerome, and historic plaques will tell you which of the buildings you’re shopping, dining or staying in were houses of ill repute. Don’t miss the art galleries and homemade craftsmanship in the unique shops!

Don’t miss: The Douglas Mansion in Jerome State Historic Park, a sprawling adobe residence built as a combination hotel for visiting investors and officials from the Little Daisy Mine and the Douglas family. Built in 1916, the house had a wine cellar, steam heat, marble shower and a central vacuuming system. A 30 minute video presents Jerome’s history, and the mansion’s view of the surrounding valley is stunning.

Ghost hunters will want to book a stay in the haunted Jerome Grand Hotel, where ghostly sounds of breathing and coughing, temperature drops, and dusty odors materialize. Doors open, bathroom taps and lights go on and off on their own, orbs and apparitions appear.

Interesting factoid: Jenny Jerome, a cousin of the founding family, had been introduced by England’s Prince of Wales to Lord Randolph Churchill in 1874, and bore a son, Winston, later that year.

2. Spiritual Things To Do in Sedona

Energetic Vortexes are centers of energy found at the intersections of ley lines (see our explanation of them in this post from our time in Istria). These sites contain powerful and transformational electromagnetic earth energy. Magnetic and electrical vortexes are thought to have yin (feminine) and yang (masculine) energy, respectively. Balanced vortexes have a mixture of both. New Age believers say visiting each type of vortex will provide different types of assistance in activities ranging from contemplation to resolve and perspective.

You will discover several well-documented Sedona vortex sites long recognized by ancient indigenous people as having spiritual powers. People report feeling vibrations or tingling, changes in body temperature or a “rush” of perception. Many New Age thinkers believe Sedona’s concentration of vortexes will magnify the power of thoughts and emotions.

Others are convinced that spiritual development occurs more rapidly here. The main vortexes of Sedona are located at Cathedral Rock, near the Airport, in Boynton Canyon off Dry Creek Road, and at Bell Rock near the Village of Oak Creek. Click here for a printable map courtesy of Love Sedona.

3. Visit the Architecturally Significant Chapel of the Holy Cross

Given the American Institute of Architects Award of Honor in 1957, the Roman Catholic Chapel of the Holy Cross was commissioned by Marguerite Brunswig Staude, a Sonoma rancher and sculptor. She had originally wanted to build a church in Budapest with Lloyd Wright (the son of Frank Lloyd Wright), but WWII caused a change of plans.

The late Sen. Barry Goldwater was instrumental in obtaining a special-use permit to build the chapel on Coconino National Forest land, and it was completed in 1956. The Chapel is also the site of one of the Sedona vortexes. The chapel is built from a 1,000 foot rock wall, rising 250 feet high as if to appear suspended in air. Click here for more information.

Love all your info! Sedona is such a perfect getaway and one of the prettiest regions in the USA! I used your site as well as this one for a great trip!

We almost made the mistake of going there in the afternoon. Luckily, I read a tip that once the parking lot gets filled, they close up for the day. So, we quickly changed our plans and decided to go there first thing in the morning. We were so glad we did! We got there at 7:45 am, and there was a line of cars waiting to pay. Despite many websites saying it’s $10 to park, (this is the price during the winter months) it was actually $30 starting from Memorial Day weekend until Labor Day on the weekends and holiday Mondays ($20 during the week). They do take credit cards and prefer it for faster processing. (For up to date entrance fees and information, please refer to their website here .) We were able to park easily and pretty close, but, when we left around 10:30 am, they had already closed the parking lot! The park ranger did greet us with “Welcome to the busiest day of the year!” So, I am sure it’s not usually that extreme, but I have read that on hot summer days (even on weekdays) it gets filled up quickly.
