Tucked between Safford and Fort Thomas, Red Knolls is a striking cluster of red sandstone formations that seem to rise suddenly from the desert floor. Popular for sunset photography, off-trail exploring, and quiet reflection, this hidden gem offers a scenic detour just off US-70. Its bold color, rugged texture, and panoramic views make it a favorite among locals for picnics, short hikes, and casual off-roading — especially at golden hour.
