It’s actually very easy to get to and not too bad of a drive. It takes about an hour to get to the stunning views but there are campsites everywhere along the way

Love this site but I highly recommend getting to it via route 17 unless you are very comfortable with off-roading. If you come from Sedona this is the route the pink Jeep tours use and there is a ton of traffic! The one and only time we came from that side the only other vehicles on that part of the trail were the pink jeeps. But it’s beautiful quiet and fun
