Red Rock Canyon Essentials

Explore the Mojave Desert’s geology through this 13-mile one-way scenic loop in Southern Nevada. The route features Jurassic-era Aztec Sandstone formations, ancient petroglyphs, and 4,771-foot high-altitude overlooks. Key stops include the Calico Hills for rock climbing and Ice Box Canyon, a seasonal waterfall hike shaded by steep canyon walls. The area is managed by the Bureau of Land Management and serves as a habitat for desert tortoises and bighorn sheep.
