“Awesome getaway from the casino's”

Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area

4/4 found this review helpful

Awesome place to get away from the traffic and crowds of the casino's. You can hike the rocks. Beautiful 13 mile one-way road around the rocks. $5 / car well worth it. A short drive outside Vegas off hwy 159 (Charleston Blvd).

To get around fast in Vegas, use the Interstates.

The last time i was at Red Rock Canyon I was 12 years old. Wow Wow its even better now. I love it.Make sure you drink lots of water. The weather is perfect in March. Make sure you have a camera, for lots of beautifull pictures. Please Please !!! visit the visitors center , lots of information regarding Red Rock. Off course you have to do the scenic loop, its about 13 miles you can actually do it in about 20 minutes. I would definetely recommend this to familys, single anyone who loves outdoor acttivities.

Lets just say that if there was six stars i would pick it. The views were so amazing i cant even describe it. WEAR hiking boots!!!!!!
This is an amazing place to bring children. Some of the Mountains can be climbed. I did quite a lot of balancing on rock formations. Young adults will apreciate the views. Go to the visitors center, you will learn a lot. There are many pictures i am enclosing.

“Easy Trip from Las Vegas. Nice canyon views and trails!”

Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area

Very easy trip (15 minutes) from Las Vegas. The visitors center was informative and there are many great trails for an easy hike. The loop road was a great way to see it all. Look for the climbers... they're so small and not easy to spot. Take the time to hike down some the easy trails.

“A great place to get away from the hustle and bustle of Las Vegas”

If you enjoy nature, hikes and scenery, then take a trip out to Red Rock Canyon and enjoy the 13 mile loop drive. There are plenty of stopping points along the way with several miles of hiking trails. We went in early December, the temperature was only in the 40's due to the elevation, but had a great time. Red Rock Canyon is only 25 miles from Las Vegas and is well worth a half a day excursion.
