Sedona
If you are feeling adventurous and up for a 2 hour drive, Sedona is a breathtaking, Arizona desert town near Flagstaff that’s surrounded by red-rock buttes, steep canyon walls and pine forests. Uptown Sedona is full of shopping and art galleries. On the town’s outskirts, numerous trailheads access Red Rock State Park, which offers various hiking trails and picnicking spots. We would recommend checking out Devil's Bridge (pictured above) or Bell Rock.
