Adobe Jack Trail is a 2.1 mile path in the Coconino National Forest near Sedona, Arizona. The Red Rock Ranger District takes care of it. The tread is native material, so you walk on packed dirt and rock rather than pavement. Grades run about 8 to 10 percent, which means steady short climbs rather than flat walking. It is listed as trail number 660 and rated trail class 2, a simple developed path with no pavement and no railings. Wear shoes with grip, carry more water than you think you need, and check the district for closures before you drive out to the trailhead.

A public dog park at 950 Soldier Pass Road in Sedona. Dog parks are where dogs run loose, and owners are expected to watch their own animals and clean up after them. Water, shade and the condition of the gates are the things worth checking on a first visit, since a small park in a dry climate can be hard on paws on a summer afternoon. The city website carries the park rules and any closure. For questions about hours or maintenance, call (928) 203-5057. Bring your own water bowl to be safe, and bring bags.

Coyote Trail is a 0.32 mile route numbered 665 on the Coconino National Forest. Day to day care falls to the Red Rock Ranger District. Native material is the surface here, which is to say plain dirt and stone. Grades of 8 to 10 percent give a sense of how steep the walking gets. The trail class is 2. Tell someone where you are going and when you plan to be back. Bring more water than you think the walk needs. Shade can be thin, so an early start makes the walk easier in hot months.
