BLM Winter Bucket List #15: Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area, Nevada, for a “Natural” Getaway with Stellar Rock Climbing

When winter temperatures drive most of the nation indoors, Red Rock Canyon - Nevada’s first National Conservation Area - comes alive with activity.

The area is located just 17 miles west of the Las Vegas Strip and is visited by more than one million people each year. In marked contrast to a town geared to entertainment and gaming, Red Rock offers visitors 195,000+ acres for a different kind of adventure - a 13-mile scenic drive, more than 30 miles of hiking trails, campgrounds and diverse outdoor recreation activities as well as a visitor center with exhibit rooms.

What’s the greatest attraction to Red Rock in the winter? It’s the climbing in moderate weather. Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area is considered one of the finest rock climbing areas in the world. It features hundreds of established sport, bouldering and traditional climbs, with commercial guides and resources available for even the beginner.
