Sedona Vortex Map

Many visitors have asked for a Sedona vortex map showing where all these renowned spots of heightened spiritual and metaphysical energy can be found. We've created a Sedona vortex map indicating the four major Sedona vortex sites: Cathedral Rock, Bell Rock, Boynton Canyon and Airport Mesa. We've also included the site of the Chapel of the Holy Cross, which many visitors also claim is a vortex spot.

Want to experience the vortexes in person? Reserve your spot with a Sedona vortex guide or vortex tour company.

The ancient Native American Yavapai people lived all over the Sedona area, painting petroglyphs and establishing cliff dwellings, indicating to future archaeologists and visitors that their creative force, the energy of their “ Great Mother” was powerful and palpable.

Today, the Yavapai still reside in Sedona alongside New Age enthusiasts and visitors curious about the power of the Sedona vortex. Is the earth’s energy really swirling in these spots, with kinetic electricity that twists the surrounding trees and makes visitors' bodies tingle? Or is the power of the Sedona vortex simply a state of mind; a product of the visitor's perception- and a result of the desire to find a sacred, natural spot where we can encounter energy larger than ourselves?

Where to Find Vortexes

Most of these vortexes (or vortices) include easy to advanced hiking to reach them. Often you can park in a nearby parking lot or on the side of the road (be careful parking roadside...traffic in Sedona can be very busy.) Important: Don't forget to start at the Coconino National Forest South Gateway Visitors Center at 8375 State Route 179, or the visitors center in Uptown Sedona, to purchase your Red Rock Pass parking permit.

POPULAR VORTEX LOCATIONS

  1. Courthouse Butte / Bell Rock

    From the Village of Oak Creek on Highway 179, where you can pull into the Coconino National Forest parking lot for the Bell Rock Pathway to view Bell Rock and Cathedral Butte.  This turnoff on the east side of the road is about 1.1 miles north of the National Forest's South Gateway Visitors Center.

  2. Cathedral Rock

    Return to Highway 179 and head north 2.8 miles to Back O' Beyond Road, turning west off the Highway and see spectacular Cathedral Rock.

  3. Chapel of the Holy Cross

    Return to Highway 179 and continue north 0.5 miles to Chapel Road, then 0.8 miles east on Chapel Road up the hill to the famous Chapel of the Holy Cross.

  4. Airport Mesa

    Continue on Highway 179 and go to the "Y" at the junction of Highway 179 and Highway 89A.  Head west on Highway 89A (enter the traffic circle and go about 3/4 of the way around until you can exit onto 89A West.) Go 1.1 mile, turning south on Airport Road (keep your eyes out... there is no traffic light here.)  A short, steep climb up the hill to Airport Mesa, home of a vortex spot and perhaps the most popular scenic viewpoint at sunrise and sunset.

  5. Boynton Canyon

    Return to Highway 89A and travel 2 miles west through West Sedona to Dry Creek Road at which you make a right and head north up Boynton Canyon.  Boynton Canyon is one of the most scenic of the box canyons that make Arizona Red Rock Country so famous. Boynton Canyon is also home to the renowned Enchantment Resort.
