We no longer visit the chapel since they placed the statue of Christ inside. It changed the energy in a dark and negative way for much of the local community. But the views are amazing. It was once a welcoming space for all, and now we find we cannot even sit in the chapel at all. But still a great spot for photos, history, etc..

Great for learning about the area, some fun hiking, but beware, these folks are not dog friendly and escorted us out of the park because our dog had to relieve herself before we left it to go explore. It was pretty rude and we won't go back, but still a great place to visit. Sedona overall is very dog friendly.
