Hangover Trail Description
The Hangover Trail is worth a trip regardless of how hard you partied the night before. With plenty of Sedona’s classic red sandstone scenery to see, it’s a fun trip that can be extended for even better views. This hike sees heavy traffic, so arriving early is recommended.
The only downside to this hike is that a section of this trail closely follows a route used by pink Jeep tours and ATVs, so it can be a bit noisy. Don’t let this stop you from visiting, though! Also, watch for mountain biker traffic and remember to share the trail.
Starting from the trailhead, you’ll start off on Munds Wagon Trail, which closely follows Schnebly Hill Road for a stretch. Where the loop splits, head left and double back a bit to the base of the mesa. You’ll climb up underneath Pointed Dome and then wrap around to the south. While this guide ends here, going a bit further (about a mile) to the saddle between Pointed Dome and The Teapot gives you an even better view. When you’re ready, head back on the same trail you used to head up.
