If you're a nature lover, experience the majestic desert landscape in all its glory at Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area. This 15-mile park is home to the area's finest hiking, plus incredible finds in geology and wildlife. You'll catch glimpses of striking species such as hawks, mule deer, desert willows, and antelope ground squirrels. Explore one of 26 scenic trails throughout the park, or explore Native American culture through ancient pictographs and petroglyphs. This isn't your average hike, either. Here, you may find fossilized corals, bacteria, and even the prehistoric footprints of dinosaurs.
