The Experience

Before You Go

Carry extra water

Desert rides dehydrate quickly—bring at least 1 liter per hour and a hydration pack for longer loops.

Start early

Begin in the morning to avoid afternoon heat and to catch softer light for photos.

Know your battery

Monitor assist level and plan a loop within the bike’s 25–40 mile range to avoid being stranded.

Wear a helmet and closed toes

A helmet and sturdy shoes protect you on rocky singletrack and steep descents.

Local Knowledge

Hidden Gems

  • Doe Mountain summit for a short, high-reward climb
  • Schnebly Hill Road viewpoint for dramatic canyon perspectives

Wildlife

  • Mule deer
  • Red-tailed hawk

Conservation Note

Stay on designated trails and pack out trash; many high-use routes traverse fragile soils and native vegetation that recover slowly from trampling.

The Sedona area sits on lands historically used by Indigenous communities including the Sinagua; modern outdoor recreation grew with 20th-century tourism and Forest Service trail development.
