The Experience

Before You Go

Bring closed-toe shoes

Shoes with grip protect toes and improve control on mixed dirt and slickrock surfaces.

Start with a guided launch

Use the guided start to learn local trail etiquette and recommended loops before heading out solo.

Watch battery use on climbs

Conserve battery by using lower assist levels on flats and reserving high assist for steep pitches.

Respect trail restrictions

Ask staff which trails allow e-bikes and stay on designated routes to protect fragile soils and vegetation.

Local Knowledge

Hidden Gems

  • Low-traffic service-road overlooks with expansive valley views
  • Short side-canyon spurs that end at quiet oak-lined washes

Wildlife

  • Red-tailed hawk

Conservation Note

Practice Leave No Trace, stay on designated routes, and confirm e-bike access rules to avoid damage to fragile soils and cultural sites.

The Sedona area has long cultural significance with Indigenous presence and scattered rock art sites; the red sandstone landscape shaped local traditions for centuries.
