Hiking With Dogs
Hiking with Dogs

Are the Sedona walking/hiking trails dog-friendly?
We are planning a small trip to Sedona in about 2 months. I have been there before, but never with a dog. I found plenty of dog-friendly lodging, but I just wanted to make sure our dogs would be allowed (with leash, of course) on the trails, particularly the trails leading to vortexes and such. Any help, please?
Your answer on dogs is here below (for the Federally managed Coconino Forest and points around Sedona. Some areas do, and some prohibit dogs. Scroll about halfway through that FAQ and it will tell you where they are not allowed, and what the requirements are.
Put it this way, I have seen people walking their dogs, always on a leash. There are snakes to watch for.
