Energy vortexes in Sedona, Arizona, are considered special spots where the earth’s energy is powerful and can affect those who visit. These vortexes are thought to be centers of swirling energy conducive to healing, meditation, and self-exploration. The Cathedral Rock Vortex is perhaps the most well-known of the five major vortexes in the area.

There are different types of vortexes, often referred to as having masculine or feminine-driven energy, with inflow and upflow of the air around you, representing either energy coming in or out. These naturally occurring vortexes can be found on mountaintops, mesas, canyons, and deep valleys. The Cathedral Rock vortex is a unique multiple-pillar structure and is particularly beautiful for a sunset hike in Sedona.

The Cathedral Rock Vortex Trailhead is just outside Sedona and under ten minutes from our luxurious bed and breakfast. Including this hike on your itinerary is such a lovely addition to exploring the stunning Red Rock countryside and getting some exercise. You may even feel your energy replenished and renewed from visiting the vortex. Whether the vortex does this or not, when you book a room at Canyon Villa, you’ll have a beautiful place to relax after a day on the trails. Start planning and make a reservation today!
