I drove this road today, 10-26-19, and it has deteriorated drastically. This video shows a fairly smooth surface and it is nothing like that now. Be prepared for a really rough ride if you are considering making a run at Schnebly Hill Road.
I've seen similar reports on social media about it getting rougher lately. I hope to run it sometime in the next year, maybe after this snow season. Thanks for the update.
I took my 2014 f 150 down and up this road. Had no problems, like they said very rocky. I bought mickey Thomson tires and they were great,it is a good challenge of your driving skills.
27.38...late November,1974 filming was underway here for the NBC TV series Movin'On.Episode "Landslide" (season one)...Guest stars John Ritter,Jeff Conaway.
The road coming down heading to route 17 looks much more manageable. Do you think a Ford Econoline Van would hold up going up and back ? I’d stay clear of the rocky part that heads into Sedona
When I ran it, it was with 31 AT's in 4WD part time with open diffs. I know it had changed difficulty since, but I'm sure with decent clearance, you will likely be alright.
It's not the bottom of the Grand Canyon. Its the interchange of two paved roads in Sedona Az. Going up is amazing to US 17 I did it a low rider. Slow and safe
+Dave k We have a few others posted up on our channel. Broken Arrow (ruclips.net/video/i2CZp6WMwJc/видео.html) is another great one. Also check out Soldiers Pass trail if you have more time. All of these can be found on our website if you want to view them on a map/get more info: azoffroad.net/sedonajerome-trails/4590130493
I love that trail and I remember it being manageable with my Toyota 4Runner back in 2002, but in 2013 I went there with a rental Chevy Tahoe and that trail was at least 3-4 times rougher that how it looks in this video. I was afraid I wasn't going to make it out of there or that I might break something under the vehicle. It's a nice trail for sight seeing and very worth it but it seems like sometimes they smooth it out and you can make it with the clearance of any truck, but sometimes it may be a lot rougher.
What's the metal rattling noise on your Jeep? I hear the GP but sounds like your hood isn't shut.. just curious. Great vid of the Run; spectacular views. thnks
Great Video!!! Just did Crown King trail last wknd, this definitely looks a lot smoother and calmer. which is what we want! Would you agree? Or is there surprise difficult areas? How long was the trail itself?
Thank you Laura. If you're talking about this versus the Backway to Crown King, then yes, this one is definitely smoother. If you're talking about the frontway into CK, then I would say this is a little bit rougher. Schnebly Hill itself has a few rocky/washboardy spots but nothing really surprising. The trail is only 11 miles so it goes much quicker!
Planing on going to Sedona next year after 5 years of tackling the trails in Utah ( the past 2 years at Moab ) This trail is on my list to do along with some more challenging

Your video is top down
It's pinon pine juniper dust road so common on NO AZ on the edge of the r

Anyone been through there with a open diff 2wd preruner on 31 inch all terrains?

Wow it's graded
Did you see that Deer run up the hill on the right side just before the second pink jeep tour (about 6:15+-)?
Poor guy running from one Jeep right into another. There's also a rattlesnake in the middle of the trail 23:59.
+www.azoffroad.net Rats! I missed that one.
I want to take a stock rental Jeep on this trail and I have little off road experience. Do you have any advice?

Very helpful video thanks!
Supposed to be 4×4 off roading, but you taking the smoothest line. Might as well get back on asphalt.
I did it 3 years ago in my 99 AWD Ford Explorer in April
I want to drive this in the summer of 2016 with a Barlow Jeep Rental. Can't wait to get out there.
+Dave k The view from Schnebly Hill Vista is by far the best part of the trail. Barlow's is great, you should have a fun trip!

Mitch Plehn That's the high lift on the roof! By this point in the trip, the foam padding meant to keep it in place had worn out. Ha.
www.azoffroad.net Aaaah..that makes sense now...again great vid's!

What's that clicking sound? Sounds like someone shaking a can of spray paint? Hope the Jeep is Okay!
how high of a clearance do need for this trail?
+Serg tech A stock SUV can do this trail but might have to go slower on some parts. The initial climb from Sedona is the rockiest part.
+www.azoffroad.net koo thanks man
Do you deflate tires before starting this trek?
The pink jeep tours really killed Sedona. Long live the Polar Bear
