Sedona Hiker Road Trip: Monument Valley, Cedar Mesa, Natural Bridges, Canyonlands and Arches



While Arizona, and Sedona in particular offers numerous wonders to explore, Sedona Hiker is not immune to the beauty of other locales. On a recent trip to Utah, I sampled some of the most beautiful locations in the state. 

We did not include Bryce and Zion in this trip because we had already been there, but we will certainly go back again. 

If you have not yet visited these wonders of nature, you must do so!


This trip included Monument Valley, Cedar Mesa, Natural Bridges, Canyonlands and Arches parks. 

We started our trip in Monument Valley, driving the loop to take in the sights and marvel at the iconic monuments that served as a backdrop to some of America's most famous Western movies.

Onward toward Mexican Hat, and then to Cedar Mesa and Natural Bridges. 

The next day we headed to Canyonlands and took the rim hike to enjoy the beautiful canyon below us. 

Then it was on to Arches. 

A memorable trip with lots of beautiful landscape to see!
