Arizona blew us away. We have yet to travel much through the US (we always just are drawn to international adventures…anyone else?) but WOW, our own country is so versatile in its beauty.
We spent two days in Phoenix (the first day of our trip & last), three in the Grand Canyon (which we felt was perfect), & three in Sedona.
I had no clue how much this state would challenge me. Hiking here is NO JOKE & sometimes it’s more like a rock climb.
But reaching the peak was always worth the struggles of the summit.
Roadtripping this state with my BFF felt like a movie.
We roadtripped from Phoenix to Grand Canyon to Sedona. We devoured a TON of mexican cuisine in Phoenix, hiked INTO the Grand Canyon (seriously, if you can, actually hike PAST the rim, it’s magnificent), spotted tons of moose strolling along the rim, and summited the massive red rocks in Sedona.
Fave hikes in Grand Canyon: Bright Angel (hiked to Indian Gardens & then back up) & South Kaibab trail.
Fave hikes in Sedona: Cathedral Rock (hard but worth it for sunset) & Doe Mountain (easy breezy, way less people & 360 view up top!)
If you have yet to venture across this beautiful state, you surely should make plans to!
