Even though the red rock formations and deep canyons have been a part of this area for millions of years, the town of Sedona was incorporated as recently as 1988. Sedona campgrounds are located throughout this area of Arizona’s high desert, making for some of the most beautiful surroundings one could imagine. For those that embark on a Sedona camping trip, one thing is for sure: don’t forget the camera.

While Sedona has become popularized in commercials and television over the last few decades, it retains a certain mystery. Artists that have made their homes in the mountains and surrounding Oak Creek Canyon often talk about its spiritual qualities. Staying at the Sedona campgrounds offers guests an opportunity to experience this special part of the country, both in its natural habitat and throughout its specialty shops, restaurants, and historical attractions. Not only that, but a Sedona camping trip could also be easily positioned as the first leg of an even greater journey to the immense and incredible Grand Canyon.
