Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area - Scenic Drive


The one-way thirteen mile scenic drive through Red Rock Canyon is a paved road with plenty of space for vehicles and bicycles. In most places, the road is wide enough for faster traffic to overtake and pass slower traffic without the need for turnouts. Several named paved parking areas are provided along the route. These include Calico 1 and 2, Sandstone Quarry, High Point Overlook, White Rock, Willow Springs, Ice Box Canyon, Red Rock Wash Overlook, and Pine Creek Canyon.

A lifetime Senior Pass is available for $10 for those 62 years of age or older.
