Bell Rock is one of four rock formations in Sedona believed by New Age adherents to contain a power vortex. It is said to contain masculine energy, which helps increase spiritual strength, confidence and decisiveness.

Bell Rock is located south of Sedona on the east side of Arizona highway 179 (see map below right). There's a parking area at the foot of the formation, from which trails lead to the top.
