This section of trail makes one truly feel like they are in the wilderness. This part of Bell Trail follows along the northern bank of Wet Beaver Creek, offering views of the surrounding canyon, desert tanks, and a blossoming riparian environment. Pay attention to signage as you follow this trail as there are numerous trail intersections.

Hiking

Unfortunately, with Sedona's Slide Rock costing money, this free spot is often being overrun. If you go, please consider picking up trash and leaving this gem better off than you found it.

Hiking

Also, in the summer for beginning hikers this can be a very challenging hike. Know your limits as you get drawn in by the seductive beauty of this place. Be careful about jumping into the pool. Remember, with rare exceptions, helicopter rescues are not always approved in wilderness areas. That said, enjoy!
