Devils Bridge

Devils Bridge | 3.12.17 | Sedona, AZ | 34.889984 ° N, -111.819929 ° W

 

Devils Bridge is located in the red rock secret mountain wilderness of Sedona, AZ and it's the largest natural bridge in the area. 

It isn't far from the center of Sedona, about 5 minutes. To get to the trailhead take 89A to Dry Creek Rd and turn right onto Vultee Arch (the signs will tell you to continue on Dry Creek). When you turn onto Vultee Arch there will be a parking lot to your left, turn in here if you don't have 4WD or aren't comfortable off roading. If your cars a beast then the road will take you straight to the trailhead.

Make sure you get to the parking lot early- it fills up quick! There are a ton of hikes that leave from the same parking lot & it's not very big. If you get there after the lot has filled you'll have to park on Dry Creek Rd. If you parked in the lot (like us) then you'll be doing about a 4 mile hike out and back. If you parked on the road it's going to be a 4.5 mile hike out and back. If your car survived the road to the trailhead you'll only have a mile hike. 

 

From the Parking lot head back to Vultee Arch and start your hike. Keep an eye out for cars- they tend to fly down the road. 

The views along this trail are amazing. Clearly Leah was excited about them.

The rock formations are unreal out here. You're surrounded by tons of them and theres views everywhere you turn

The trail is off to the right, theres a sign at the break you can't miss it. 

Once you start the hike it isn't far to the bridge- take your time heading up there's great views. 

After one last climb you're there. Hang out and enjoy the views they were the best we saw. 

Devil's Bridge is an awesome place that seems to attract rad people. After you take your pictures on the bridge hang around for a bit. The views are great take them in and enjoy a snack. It's a lot of fun to see who comes up the trail, show some good karma and offer to take some pictures for people. When they offer the same for you you'll be grateful. 

As always,
