Devil’s Bridge has become more Insta-famous than ever, and it attracts bigger crowds than ever.
There are two trailhead parking lots, a couple miles north of Sedona: Dry Creek and Mescal.
Each has about 30 parking spaces.

To avoid the stress of finding a parking spot, you can use the Sedona Shuttle, which operates Thursdays through Sundays.
You can park in a big lot in town, and have the shuttle drop you off at the trailhead.

As for the trail to Devil's Bridge, it’s two miles from either parking lot, and mostly flat for the first mile.
In the second mile, you’ll start to climb, and have to scramble up some rocks and steps, before reaching the Devil’s Bridge.

The line for photos on the bridge can be an hour or more during the busy spring months. Weekdays in winter draw the smallest crowds of the year at Devil's Bridge and other hiking trails in Sedona.

Relative to the crowds at Devil’s Bridge, I was recently there in the first week in May. I hiked there in the afternoon. When I arrived there were a few people there and no wait to go on the bridge. Once I got settled and pit my bag down so I could walk on the bridge, I looked up and no one was there. I was at this supposedly crowded place by myself. I was shocked but happy. I took some pics including some selfies then stayed for a few minutes to reflect. It was amazing. I then left and as I was beginning my trek down the next visitor was arriving. My visit was awesome.

The small crowd is one to celebrate. Definitely worth going in the winter.
