The West Fork Oak Creek Trailhead in Sedona is a stunning and picturesque spot to explore the serenity of the incredible red rocks that this area has to offer. Located in the Coconino National Forest, a short drive from downtown Sedona, this trail is a popular spot for hikers and nature lovers alike.
The trail leads up through Oak Creek Canyon , meandering along the winding streambed that gives the canyon its name. Along the way, you'll find plenty of opportunities to take in some of the breathtaking scenery that makes Sedona so beloved. The impressive sandstone cliffs are colored in shades of pink, red and orange, and the lush vegetation ranges from juniper shrubs to towering sycamore trees. Wildlife sightings include deer, elk, bobcats, coyotes and even bald eagles!
This hike can be enjoyed year-round due to its mild climate and moderate elevation. The West Fork Trail spans about 6 miles round-trip with an elevation gain of about 1000 feet. It is rated as a moderate hike but can be strenuous at times due to rocky sections and somewhat steep terrain on parts of the trail. To make sure your journey remains safe and enjoyable, it is important to carry plenty of water with you as well as snacks or lunch if you plan on making a day out of it!
At times you will come across an open rock field known as "the Mesa". This vast expanse offers 360 degree views across the entire length of Oak Creek Canyon all the way down into Sedona proper. As you make your way back down towards your starting point there are quite a few spots where you can take time out for lunch or simply sit back and enjoy nature’s beauty at its best!
When you’ve finished exploring all that West Fork Oak Creek Trailhead has to offer, be sure to leave no trace behind – nothing should be left behind except for your footprints!
