Amazing Hikes in Sedona - Hangover Trail & the Windows
Yeah. Sedona is beautiful. And crowded. But there are ways to beat the crowds and see the beauty. Secret #1 is easy; get up early. Beat the crowds while they're sleeping. Secret #2 is harder; figure out places everyone else isn't going to. The Hangover Trail is a great alternative to the norm when you go to Sedona. Not really that hard, not really that easy, but the Hangover Trail provides a huge pay off for not too much effort. Well, if you have a 4WD. I guess that's Secret #3; have a vehicle that gets you where other vehicles can't get to.
And Secret #4; explore. We hiked this trail before. We saw the arch. We saw the windows. But we had an agenda and we were tired, so we didn't explore. That's great, because it gave us an excuse to go back and hike the Hangover Trail again. And it was worth it. The Proboscis Arch was amazing. You can climb right up to it. Well, if you have the confidence and experience you can. And then you keep going. The mountain rewards you with several caves called The Windows.
I have to say this. I get some hate for showing these places. I do not intend to ruin the wild places that we all love. But they are not mine. They do not belong to those who are in a secret circle of people. They are there for anyone to explore. I won't draw you a map with an X, but I don't mind sharing with like minded people. That said, if you DO decide to go explore, I hope you honor that these places are there for all of us to share and discover. That means leave no trace. Don't deface these wild places by carving your name into the rock. Carry out what you bring in. Sometimes, carry out what others brought in. Do your part. Leave things as you found them for others who are like you to experience.
