Planning a family vacation? If you want to enjoy the old west feel of Nevada, but don’t think the kids are old enough to enjoy Vegas just yet, you can plan a family camping trip to Red Rock Canyon, Mojave Desert, Nevada. Camping at Red Rock Canyon is a great experience because you will be able to enjoy the desert as it was in the days of the Wild West, with only campfires and tents to protect you from the wolves and the rattlers. Hey, the cowboys survived, and you will thrive on the experience of camping at Red Rock Canyon.

Okay, so you don’t want to spend a week in a tent? Take a road trip to Vegas for an afternoon, its right up the road from Red Rock Canyon, also in the Mojave Desert, but don’t think that you will be bored at Red Rock Canyon. There are many things that you can enjoy. You can go hiking or biking on the trails, rock climbing or four wheeling off the beaten path. You can learn about the environment and the geology, and everything there is to learn about Red Rock Canyon at the Exhibit Area, and even shop in the Bookstore. There is enough to keep you busy at Red Rock Canyon, Mohave Desert, Nevada for at least a week.
