I've hiked everywhere solo in Sedona. Even in the off-season (december), there were always people around. That said, I use AllTrails to make sure I stay on the trail ;) Because sometimes it isn't clear.

Definitely do some research on the hiking shuttle bus because you'll need it to reach the popular trailheads

I recommend these hikes -- 
Devils Bridge: Very popular, but it's for a reason. You will have to stand in line at the top to get that iconic photo of you on the bridge, but everyone friendly and no one is going to sneak off with your camera and phone when you have them take a photo of you.

Cathedral Rock: VERY popular. But there is scrambling on the trail and about half the people end up turning around at that point. I almost did, as I hate rock scrambling. But give it a shot; if you make it up to the top, it's worth it and it's so much easier on the way down.

Seven Sacred Pools/Brins Mesa: A longer loop hike, make sure to do it clockwise. A sketchy stretch of road to the trailhead though, with large chunks of upheaved pavement chunks and gigantic potholes. I was glad I was driving a 4x4 but technically you don't need it.

Doe Mountain: Quick hike to the top of a mesa with stunning views.

Bear Mountain: Definitely a challenge with some rock scrambling, which I hate. I'm glad I did it but probably wouldn't do it again.

Subway Cave: LOVED it. Flat pretty much the whole way out there, you need to watch for the turnoff to the cave as it's not an official trail. Rock scrambling required to get up.

Little Horse/Chicken Point: Takes you to a spot where the pink jeep tours all go. Pretty cool, easy enough hike. [/quote]
