The Devil’s Bridge is the largest natural sandstone arch in Sedona, and the Devil’s Bridge Trail is a 4.6-mile (7.4-kilometer) hike that traverses the rocky canyons and desert. It is considered a moderately easy hike, although you should expect a few steep inclines and maybe even some rock scrambling.

That depends. Devil’s Bridge Trail is considered a year-round hike, although the mildest weather window is from September through April. Winters get cold, and can even bring snow. If you’re hiking in the summer months, start early and bring plenty of water; heat stroke and dehydration are real risks.

Yes, you can hike the Devil’s Bridge Trail without a guide, but it’s advisable not to hike alone: take a buddy and ensure someone knows your location. The trailhead can be accessed by standard vehicles; if you have 4WD, you can park further along and shave off a couple of miles of hiking.

The most stunning times of day are known as golden hour, after sunrise and again before dusk, when the Devil’s Bridge rock formation glows with buttery light. Expect crowds then and wait times to take photos, especially during peak hiking seasons in spring and fall.
