Schnebly Hill Road
Directions

Schnebly Hill Road is a famous unpaved route winding through the Coconino National Forest in Sedona, Arizona. The rugged trail climbs dramatically through red rock canyons to reveal spectacular panoramic vistas of the surrounding canyon country. Due to its extremely rough and rocky terrain, it is a favorite corridor for 4x4 enthusiasts, off-road tours, and scenic hiking.

Quick tip: Use a high-clearance 4x4 vehicle or book a guided Jeep tour to navigate the extremely rough and rocky terrain safely.
