Hiked this on Saturday, October 3 in the early afternoon. Was able to find a parking spot, even though it was the weekend. You have to hike flat for a while before you start ascending the "bell." The trail markers become harder to find as you start to ascend and we were definitely off the trail for parts of the... more

We stopped at the Red Rock S P visitor center coming North from Cottonwood. The worker there told us our National Park pass would be OK and we didn't need to buy a RRock pass as it is also part of the (forgive me if I have the wrong forest we went through many) Coconino Nat'l Forest. I would definitely... more

BEAUTIFUL!

Ok, so I wasn't planning on climbing it. I intended to just walk around on the lower path and take some cool pictures. Then my husband kept climbing up higher and higher... This is not a hard rock to climb. Plenty of toe and hand hold on the higher parts. I'm not at all athletic and I made it to... more

Around January my kids (11 and 13 yr old.) and I took the hike up to Bell Rock. It was fairly easy until you actually start climbing up the rock of course. The views are so beautiful. My kids took an unbeaten path up the rock as we didn't see any trail markers initially. We climbed up until we were... more

Thing to remember when visiting the Red Rock/Coconino Forest area!! Red Rock Passes are required to park at the scenic overlooks and trailheads for recreation. Although they aren’t necessary for short stops for photos (15 minutes or less). A daily pass is $5. We started the trail around the base of Bell Rock. There are no official paths up the... more

We rented bikes at Bikes and Beans and rode up the Bell Rock Pathway. It is a fairly strenuous ride for my 10 year old daughter and I, who are not bikers, but we really enjoyed it. A really cool view. We only made it up to Bell Rock, but the pathway goes much farther. You can decide how far... more

At the end of Feb, my sis and I hiked up Bell Rock. The path is very primitive but well worth it. The views were breathtaking! A great hike! Oh, we did not experience the vortex said to be there. more

Our family hiked up a path if you call it that. There are markers but for the most part you make your own way up. Our 14 and 11 year old had a blast as did we. But we only got 2/3 the way up and decided to attempted the return trip. Please be careful. It is fun but also... more
