Top 10 MTB Trails in Sedona, AZ - everything you need to know!

Sedona, Arizona is one of my top 3 MTB vacation destinations - returning to ride here at least once a year for the past 10 years. So now, I have compiled a list of my favourite 10 trails, which I continue to ride over and over. Each of these trails is outstanding in it's own way. But each of them offers outstanding views of the Sedona valley and segments of flowy singletrack, slabby rock rolls and ledgy, bench-cut exposure. After watching this video, I am sure you will agree that Sedona is worthy of returning over and over again...there are so many outstanding trails to ride...and even more great trails that haven't made my top 10 list!

WOW! Great video! You put a lot of work into your website as well. Thank you!

[@ronsanderson99]

Well thank you to watching this video and also checking out my website! Yes it was a lot of work, but it was also very fun finding these trails, riding them and making this video!

Great video. However I think you might add a little more warning or heads up about hangover. There are so many consequences and the average expert rider from almost anywhere in the U.S. might not understand. Just my opinion. Great job and love the coverage.

[@ronsanderson99]

Thanks for the feedback. Yes, I do worry about Hangover but also Hiline and the Hogs too! The videos don’t usually show the steepness or ledginess of the trails…I am hoping that viewers have a good sense of their own skill/capability, or what level of trails they are able to ride. Thanks for watching!

Thank you, Ron, for all the videos you have posted on Sedona, I just got back from Sedona, and I rode some of the trails you posted on KZbin, and you were very accurate about the details of each trail. I rode all the HOG trails because of your video of them. Thank you

[@ronsanderson99]

You are welcome. I’m glad you had a chance to ride Sedona, that is one of my favourite regions anywhere and there are always more trails to return to ride another time. Thanks for watching!

Great video! Sedona, where the “overbiked” argument goes to die. Overall the toughest trails I’ve ever ridden.

[@ronsanderson99]

Thanks for the compliment! Yes, you’ve got to have a big bike for the 3 H’s in Sedona! I would also put Jackson’s in Moab and Grafton Downhill in Hurricane up with Hangover and Hiline in Sedona as the hardest technical trails I’ve ever ridden! But Sedona also has so many excellent black caliber trails that it is an awesome place to spend extended time riding! Thanks for watching!

@@ronsanderson99 I'm in Florida for a work project and will returning to the west coast in August. Recently purchased a small class B RV. I work from home and, with the RV, plan to start working from the road. I'll use your website for camping and riding spots. Your hard work is appreciated.
