Climbing Red Rock Canyon near Las Vegas, NV
The sound of slot machines and neon lights fill the air in Las Vegas, NV. Finding quiet space may seem impossible. And when you look around the only climbable objects appear to be the tall buildings in the middle of the desert. But if you head just 17 miles west, you’ll end up at Red Rock Canyon.
High-rising red rocks outside the party city of Las Vegas provide the perfect escape and climbing opportunity for the outdoor adventurer.
Climbers of all skill levels will find terrific bolted and traditional climbing routes. For those that find more joy in short climbs and powerful moves, boulders are scattered throughout the canyon.
Red Rock might be known for its rope climbs. But the boulders still offer some fun routes.
