Pregnant in Sedona - Activity Suggestions

We%26#39;re traveling to Sedona in Apr, at which point I%26#39;ll be about 26 weeks pregnant. We%26#39;re active/adventure type people, but will be somewhat limited on this trip. We can%26#39;t do the jeep tours, heli/bi-plane, or any intensive hiking. We definitely want to get out and see some of the beautiful landscape of Sedona. Any suggestions for some ';light'; activities??

If this is your first visit to Sedona, you might consider the Trolley Tour. See this website: www.sedonatrolley.com





Go see Montezuma%26#39;s Castle and Well and Tuzigoot, all Indian Ruins in neighboring towns, easy access.





There are plenty of easy trails here (as well as more difficult), so you will be able to do some hiking. Just visit the Official Chamber of Commerce Visitor Center when you get here and they can give you that info.





You might want to take the Verde Canyon Railroad. See this website: www.verdecanyonrr.com





Go see the Chapel of the Holy Cross (very popular for beautiful architecture and location). Though there is a long fairly steep ramp to walk up to it, I think they keep a wheelchair at the bottom for anyone%26#39;s use.





You can see plenty of scenery just driving around Sedona yourself. It%26#39;s all around you!





You%26#39;ll find particularly great, easy access, panoramic scenery viewing from the Chapel, Airport Mesa (up Airport Road), and along Upper Red Rock Loop Rd (several pullouts).

tim30,





In addition to the suggestions above, all of which are excellent, call the folks at Pink Jeep Tours. Many of their tours are in sixteen passenger buses and are quite gentle. They will know which ones are safe for you.

Thank you!!




Go o sedonaselfdriviing tour.com and order a cd driving tour




Make sure to get some reservations for Palatki when you are buying your Red Rock Pass. Is a great little ruin, and has a spectacular petroglyph panel.





yes, you have to pay to park and hike here (Grrrrr).





You should also do the first part of the West Fork in Oak Creek along 89a. The apple orchard will be blooming, and there is a bridge across the creek there.



The interior part of that hike can get strenuous, but the start is just gorgeous. and you can send hubby up to get photos :) Take water shoes like Keens or Tevas.





You are going to like walking through Jerome too.
