Broken Arrow Trail to Submarine Rock

Monday, May 2, 2011 by The Hike House 2 Comments

Broken Arrow Trail to
Submarine Rock

Broken Arrow Trail is an easy and popular hike on a good trail with great red rock scenery. The trail is unshaded and can be hot in summer. Begin at the signed trailhead which will direct you across the jeep road to the trail. After 200 feet, the trail bears left (south) and soon crosses a ledge at the foot of Battlement Mesa. At .6 miles, look for the fence around Devil’s Dining Room Sinkhole 100 feet to the left and downhill. Explore, then return to the trail and continue as it gradually climbs to some scenic red rock outcrops beside Twin Buttes on the right. Continue to the end of the trail at Chicken Point at 1½ miles. More great views. Return by the same route. At ½ mile from Chicken Point, take the short side path to the right signed for Submarine Rock. Walk this interesting formation, and then return by the same path to the main trail. Continue north to complete the hike of about 3½ miles (roundtrip including Submarine Rock). The adjacent roads are used by Jeep tours.

    A good trail close to town. This is a very hot trail, so bring plenty of water, sun protection and a cool bandanna! The views are decent, the trail is easy to follow and fairly wide. Jeep Tours are always nearby. I prefer trails that are a little less traveled, but it was kind of cool to see the Jeeps driving on the rocks. If you don’t have a lot of time and want a trail close to town, this one is a good choice.

    Pleasant trail done early to avoid most jeep traffic. From the top of Submarine Rock you have views of Steamboat Rock and Snoopy.

Hogs Trail One of the most underrated areas in Sedona is Munds Wilderness. Many people in the past would take on this area because the predominant trail for this area, Broken Arrow, is adjacent to a heavily traveled jeep road. A new day has arrived…while you still must hike a portion of Broken Arrow to get to Hogs, the trail departs from the … [Read More...]
