Redefine Your Winter

re•de•fine (verb) : to give new meaning

 

To many, winter means short snowy days and long cold nights. In Sedona, winter is more than the months between beautiful autumn and emerging spring. It's a time of rediscovery, rejuvenation, and at the heart of it, a time to redefine your expectations and yourself. This winter, we invite you to explore all that Sedona has to offer and allow yourself to find new meaning in every moment.

Three ways to redefine your winter visit

 

1. Redefine: Road Trip

Did you know Sedona has its own shuttle service? The free Sedona Shuttle Trailhead Routes take you to popular trailheads like Devil's Bridge, Cathedral Rock, and Soldiers Pass. It's free! And the new on-demand Sedona Shuttle Connect service (like UberTM) can get you almost anywhere in the city for a few bucks. That means you can leave your car at your hotel, forget about driving and parking, and focus on enjoying your visit. Download the free app in the App Store or Google Play.

 

2. Redefine: Perspective

Some trails in Sedona are extremely popular but here's the truth: all the trails are beautiful. Ask your concierge, your host, or a local resident to recommend a few of Sedona's gorgeous and less-popular trails. Then look closely, there is a world of life and beauty to discover right beneath your feet - literally - wherever you go in Sedona. And while you're out there, consider following these stewardship guidelines.

 

3. Redefine: Responsibility

Ask any local: living in Sedona comes with feeling responsible for protecting it. It's an attitude of respect for the landscape and for each other. Watch this 1-minute video for a few suggestions on how you can love Sedona like a local when you're here.

 

 

We invite you to experience Sedona for yourself this winter by redefining your expectations and embracing what it has to offer.
