    Rainbow Trout Farm - Grills and Benches

    Rainbow Trout Farm is easily hidden on State Route 89A. They're located just before you enter…read moreUptown Sedona. This is a great family-fun activity. For $1.50/person, this includes the cost of admission, fishing bait, and the use of their fishing equipment. The check-in process was extremely fast, as you'll get a handful of bait and a bucket of water for the fish you'll catch. We did beat the rush and arrived about 30 minutes after they had opened. As the first ones to arrive, we had the advantage of scoping out our spot to fish. This is also great as the fish are hungry and ready to eat. So, within 40 minutes of arriving, we did catch three rainbow trout. We had caught 12", 14", and 16"! This was an epic activity to do as my son was extremely excited whenever we caught a fish and was eagerly happy to grab the net and remove the hook from the fish's mouth. Now, I do want to warn everyone that THERE IS NO NET FISHING, AS WELL AS CATCH AND RELEASE! You will be charged a fee of $25 if caught doing so. Now that we have caught our three fish, whichever fish you caught will be weighed at $1.25/inch. They do offer a cleaning service at the cost of $0.50/fish. Also, located around the ponds are a lot of grills and benches to cook your freshly caught, hard-earned fish. The grilling kit costs $1.50/fish, which includes a bag, plates, utensils, salt, pepper, butter, and garlic seasoning. There is a 2-hour limit use of the grill, but no cost to use it. Now, if you wanted to take your fish home to cook it, they can pack the fish with ice at $0.50/scoop of ice (one scoop would last about 30 minutes). Also, coolers are offered at $7.00/each, which is recommended if you plan a 2+ hour trip back to your kitchen. As a beginner to the fishing sport, this was a great activity to do with the family on your vacation! The reward of catching a fish, then cooking it right after, was amazing, and the fish was DELICIOUS!!!

    Entrance fees, then processing 8 fish, cost an additional $151.00…read more About $100 to much for 8 fish. Strongly don't recommend it, unless over paying is your thing!

If you've spent time around Sedona, you know how quickly things can feel crowded and overrun. This place is the opposite. It feels more intentional, more preserved. You're still surrounded by those iconic red rock formations, but here they're framed by open meadows, clusters of trees, and the steady presence of Oak Creek winding through the park. We set out as a group, a mix of adults and kids, and found trails that worked for everyone. That's the beauty of this place. You don't have to be chasing a summit to enjoy it. The trails are well-marked, manageable, and still interesting enough to keep you engaged. You're moving through changing terrain the whole time. One minute you're walking through sunlit grass, the next you're tucked into shade near the water, then you turn a corner and the red rock rises up again like it's been waiting for you. The creek pulls you in. There's something about moving water in the desert that makes you slow down without realizing it. We stopped more than once just to sit for a minute, let the kids explore a bit, listen to the sound of it moving over rock. No rush, no pressure to keep pushing forward. Wildlife shows up if you're paying attention. Birds moving through the trees, the occasional lizard darting across the trail, subtle signs that this isn't just a scenic backdrop, it's a living system doing its thing. What stood out most was the pace. This isn't a place that demands anything from you. It lets you take it in at your own speed. Some of us pushed a little farther down the trail, others hung back and soaked it in. Nobody felt like they were missing out. It's also one of those rare parks that feels curated without feeling artificial. You can tell it's cared for. Trails are maintained, signage is clear, and there's a quiet respect for the environment that seems to carry over to the people visiting. By the time we looped back, nobody was checking the time. That's usually a sign you picked the right place. If Sedona at its busiest feels like a spectacle, this feels like a conversation. Same landscape, different tone. And sometimes that's exactly what you want.
