Red Rock Canyon
Las Vegas, NV | 94 Miles
Although only a 30-minute ride from the glitz and glitter of Las Vegas, Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area could be on a different planet. Instead of neon and flashing lights, you’ll find a sparkling sandstone landscape of red-banded peaks and valleys, punctuated by a one way 13-mile scenic loop drive and numerous hiking trails.
Bordering the Spring Mountains and occupying nearly 200,000 acres in the Mojave Desert, Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area attracts upwards of two million visitors a year. If you’re planning to ride the scenic loop (fee applies), visit www.recreation.gov for information on advance purchase of timed entry tickets, which are required during certain times of the year.
