To reach Red Rock Canyon from Las Vegas, head west on West Charleston Boulevard/NV-159 until you reach the Red Rock Canyon Conservation Area.
As you enter the park, we recommend a stop in the Red Rock Canyon Visitor Center (I1). An outdoor exhibit divided into four themes, Earth, Air, Fire and Water offers a chance to learn about the history, geology, animal and plant life. The cooler temperatures of the Conservation Area provide relief for wildlife and over 200 different mammals including burros, rabbits, coyotes, bighorn sheep, red-tailed hawks, golden eagles, hummingbirds and even a few wild horses, bobcats and mountain lions can be found here.
Leaving the visitor center, the scenic drive climbs into the Calico Hills where sandstone hills have been separated by the canyons. Within a few miles, stop at Sandstone Quarry (H1), which in addition to other trails, a 2.5-mile hike will bring you to the Calico Tanks. The Calico Tanks are rare pools of rainwater that collect in the sandstone indentations making it a popular location for wildlife watching.
Leaving the Sandstone Quarry, the drive will continue to climb. Take advantage of the various pullouts, especially High Point Overlook which is just above 4,000 feet of elevation and provides a spectacular panoramic view of the canyon and surrounding beauty.
Shortly after High Point Overlook will be the parking area for the White Rock and Willow Springs (H2) hike. While the full 4-mile hike to Willow Springs may not fit into your schedule, you should consider walking part of it and enjoying a picnic.
A couple of miles ahead will be the trailhead to Ice Box Canyon (H3) where you can enjoy a 2.6-mile hike through the hot desert and at the end, you will be rewarded by the seasonal waterfall, where you can cool down for your trek back.
Continuing the loop, stop at the Red Rock Wash Overlook (V2), which provides another perspective of the Red Rock Canyon.
The scenic drive continues until you arrive at NV-159. From here, stop at the Red Rock Canyon Overlook (V3) and consider heading to Las Vegas for a different type of scenic drive.
