The Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area features a one-way 13-mile scenic drive, 26 hiking trails, amazing wildlife, historical and cultural resources, and much more! The area is so close to Vegas, it can be seen even from the Las Vegas Strip! The conservation area is one of the easternmost parts of the Mojave Desert. It features over 600 species of plants and is home to wild burros (donkeys), bighorn sheep, and protected desert tortoise. Six different Native American cultures were present at Red Rock over the millennia, making the area culturally and historically important—on your hiking tour, you might encounter petroglyphs, pottery fragments, and agave roasting pits! The area also offers big walls with a host of routes ranging in length and difficulty. The combination of complex geology, history, and dramatic landscape attract hikers and rock climbers from all over the world!

What you get on this adventure:
What’s not included:
For this Red Rock hiking adventure, you need to be able to hike for a full day carrying a daypack and climb easy-to-moderate routes. Each day trip, you’ll hike between five and eight hours. The terrain can be challenging and the weather unpredictable. That said, if you are looking for adventure and are up to the task of full-day hiking and climbing, you’ll be rewarded immensely.
Here’s a list of the equipment you need to bring:
Dress comfortably and for the weather in clothes you can move in. We suggest bringing clothing appropriate for the season. Layers are best and don’t wear jeans. Early and late season temperatures require warmer clothing. You may consider additional clothing such as a down jacket, vest, and medium weight long underwear if you get cold easily or if it is unusually cold or windy.

We love JHMG – we have climbed with them twice already. We could not have done this without our wonderful guides who helped us with the reservations and logistics. On both occasions, we had a unique, both challenging and fun experience. More importantly, it was very safe. So worth it!
