Red Rock, Nevada
Prime time to climb
World Class Multipitch Climbing
Nestled just west of Las Vegas, Red Rock National Conservation Area offers a stunning contrast to the city’s neon buzz. Towering sandstone formations and cheap, accessible flights make it an ideal destination for adventure-seeking climbers.
Red Rock truly shines for moderate trad multipitch routes, with a treasure trove of climbs 5.9 and under that stretch up to 1,600 feet tall. The iconic “patina” edges give a gym-like familiarity to the soaring sandstone walls, providing incredible holds as you climb pitch after pitch of varied, engaging terrain.
In Red Rock, the journey is just as exciting as the destination. Approaches and descents wind through rugged desert landscapes, making every outing a full-scale adventure. While the lights of the Las Vegas Strip might seem just over the horizon, Red Rock immerses you in a world of wild, untamed beauty.
