Massive red sandstone cliffs and a 13-mile scenic loop anchor this Mojave Desert park just west of Las Vegas.
Description
Across nearly 200,000 acres of protected Mojave Desert land, the park extends far beyond its main road into varied canyon terrain. Visitors can explore ancient petroglyphs, navigate over 30 miles of hiking trails, or tackle over 1,200 named climbing routes scattered along the sandstone walls. A dedicated visitor center offers educational exhibits on the local environment, with camping options available for multi-day trips.
