I’m often asked, what is a vortex? There are more energy areas around Sedona than any map shows, but our hikes visit three well-known ones: Airport Mesa, Bell Rock and Cathedral Rock. The hiking in between often takes us along trails like Teacup Trail, Soldiers Pass, Jim Thompson Trail, Thunder Mountain, Chapel Trail and Little Horse Trail, plus two secret sacred locations I keep just for the trail, depending on the day and the group. The energy here has real potential to open up a creative, calm spot inside you — that’s what I love sharing on the yoga hikes. Free add-ons like the chocolate walk, crystal encoding and sound bath are available on every hike — see the full list on the Free Add-Ons page.
All energy spirals — which is why Sedona’s energetic anomaly is known as vortex energy, a natural convergence of Earth’s elemental forces. Questions, science, and deeper insights into the Sedona vortex are included during our journeys.
A spiritual and mindful hike in Sedona
Many people come to Sedona looking for a spiritual or mindful experience. On this hike, that means quiet time at a vortex site, a guided meditation, and yoga on the red rocks.
The three vortex sites we hike
Airport Mesa is one of the three vortex sites our Sedona vortex yoga hikes visit.
Bell Rock — sometimes called “Baby Bell” on our site — is one of the three vortex sites our hikes visit.
Cathedral Rock is one of the three vortex sites our hikes visit, and it is also where our free summer creek swim add-on happens, in Oak Creek nearby.
How the tour works
Every hike is 2 hours or 3 to 3.5 hours, with yoga and qigong woven into the trail. Mixed-group hikes are up to 7 participants; private hikes are available for one person, a couple, or a private group of up to 17 participants. Group hikes are $111 for 3 to 3.5 hours and $88 for 2 hours per person; private hikes are $188 for 3 to 3.5 hours and $144 for 2 hours.
