PLEASE NOTE: The Sedona Shuttle currently is not operating Route 11 to Dry Creek Vista/Mescal or Route 14 to Soldier Pass due to an abundance of caution with the Pocket Fire north of Sedona. Additionally, please avoid trails in the Dry Creek and Boynton Pass area as they will be closed for public safety. 

 

Hikers and bikers have the option of still parking at Posse Grounds Park & Ride or the West SR-89A Park & Ride and they will be dropped off at the Cathedral and Little Horse trailheads instead of the regular routes from those parking lots. The City expects the North SR-179 Park & Ride will fill up quicker than normal due to increased demand from the other routes being offline.

Route 15 to Cathedral Rock and Little Horse trailheads is still running.

 

See the Forest Service's forest closure information below. Trails along SR-179 like Cathedral And Little Horse, which are serviced by our trailhead shuttle; near the Cultural Park; and near Red Rock Crossing remain open.
