Slide Rock State Park is a historic apple orchard turned natural water park located in Sedona's Oak Creek Canyon. Visitors can glide down an 80-foot natural sandstone chute, swim in cool creek waters, or stroll along short scenic hiking trails. The park also features shaded picnic areas and historic homestead structures.
