My husband and I went to Red Rock on our recent trip to Vegas (July 2008). It was amazing! The rock formations and colors were beautiful. It was a very hot day (117), so we opted to take the scenic drive instead of hiking. It is some of the most beautiful landscape I've ever seen. We went to the conservatory... more

We visited Red Rock for a second time in June 2008. It is a welcome break from the busy Las Vegas city and nice to get some fresh air and peace and quiet. Well worth a drive out. more

Really enjoyed the rock formations. Wife and I took a break from the casinos and went to get some fresh air. Beautiful scenery. Enjoyed a short hike to the red rock formations. Climbing these rocks is fun. When the heat is too much, you can easily find a rock with a cave-like formation where you can sit and relax. RRC... more

See, now I'm rating nature. It seems a little wrong to do that, but I am advising people here after all, so I guess I'm justified.

He picked us up and helped decide what to do based on our experience (bouldering in Wisconsin).... more

I took a half day trip away from The Strip with the kids and really enjoyed the scenery. Well worth the $5 entry fee and an easy drive from the strip, 30-40 minutes. Impressive scenery, rock climbing and hiking. Pack a picnic lunch for your trip and explore several trails. We hiked the trail to Calico Tank, a naturally occurring... more

Very nice guided, off road, tour with Pink SUV/Jeep. A little colder than expected but spectacular views. more

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. more
