We're often asked when is the best time to
take a Sedona
retreat vacation. The answer is any time! In fact, the
weather is one of the best things about being here. Located
4,400 feet above sea level, Sedona is about half way in
elevation between the Colorado Plateau to the north, and
the Sonoran Desert to the south. Low humidity gives the
air a refreshing feel that is wonderfully invigorating.
With over 300 days of sunshine per year,
each season in
Sedona has something special to offer. The summer
"monsoon season" usually lasts from early July to mid
September, bringing spectacular afternoon thunderstorms
and rainbows. Most species of cactus bloom in the April
and May, most wildflowers bloom in late July and August,
and autumn colors peak sometime in late October or early
November.
