    Fay Canton was my first hike in Sedona. I didn’t know where to go and found it on a random drive. My daughter and I rushed up the trail as sunset was getting close and it was an exhilarating but easy hike with some nice views once you climb up a ways.

    Great hike and a short distance. Plenty of parking especially being the first ones there at 5am. Recommend this hike.

    Very easy hike unless you split off for the archway. Very shady and cool especially at 5:30.

    A wonderful trail that starts with flat ground and delightful soft sand. The path to the Arch trail is somewhat difficult to locate, so keep your eyes open. Scaling the rocky path to the Arch on warm days can lead to Snake encounters, stay vigilant. Beneath the Arch is a large collection of rocks, which is the remains of a Ruin. Pottery shards are abundant.

    Take the rock climb up past the "end of maintained trail" sign. Then follow the rim where the rest of the crowds stop and you'll find spectacular views and get some less travelled paths to the end of the canyon.

Hiked with Kerwin, Dan and Ruth. Easy peasy nature walk to a dry fall. Good starter hike for my bad back
