Oak Creek Canyon
This canyon is about 16 miles long and less than a mile wide and is
one of the best scenic highways in Arizona. Follow SR-89A north from
Sedona and you will see the cnyons impressively colored white, yellow
and red cliffs spotted with pine, cypress and juniper trees. Some unusual
rock formations and gorges are seen along the way. Forest service
camping and
fishing sites are found along the canyon.
Slide Rock State Park
6871 N US-89A, Sedona, AZ 86336; 928-282-3034;
Park Website;
Originally known as the Pendley Homestead, is a 43-acre historical apple farm located in Oak Creek Canyon.
As one of the few homesteads left intact in the canyon today, Slide Rock State Park is a fine example of early agricultural development in Central Arizona.
The park is named after the famous Slide Rock, a stretch of slippery creek bottom adjacent to the homestead.
Visitors may slide down a slick natural water chute or wade and sun along the creek.
This attraction is very popular during warm summer days and can be quite crowded then.
