We now have a official office at the campground to help with campers to have a good experience with there checking in and checking out of their site. We are live with Recreation.gov and can help with many aspects of the reservation system. We have a lot of information regarding the area and maps for hiking and climbing for our regular campers or our new campers that have never been here. We can help them with where to go for specific things and places. We want there experience here at Red Rock Campground to be a wonderful one and to come back each and every year. We also can assist a camper to make a reservation right when they are here through our office. When you arrive at the campground please stop in to check into your site and receive you required vehicle pass. As well if there is any information you are needing or wanting just ask and we will help as much as we can.

We have a Climbing Ranger that has made these awesome signs that literally shows all of the awesome climbs at Red Rock Canyon from Traditional climbing to sport climbing to bouldering as well climbing outside of the scenic loop. Come take a look at the signage which is located inside the group area of the campground. Its worth a look they are awesome.

We here at Red Rock Campground offer a really fun program for adults and children. We have a Red Rock Ranger come out to our Amphitheater and do a discussion on a lot of different things local to the area. It might be about animals or local history of the area, But always fun and exciting. We have a campfire weather permitting. Campers love to get involved with questions and just information, as some of our visitors its their first time to the area and are very interested. Our Ranger is very good on sparking the interest of our campers so come and have fun as the information that is discussed is fun. So its usually in the evening where you can have a good day at red rock canyon and then come back to the campground and relax in the sitting area around a nice fire and enjoy.

LOOK AT THE STUNNING BEAUTY OF THE RED ROCKS IN THE WINTER... AMAZING

Besides the picture on it this signage is very important as it has a lot of good information. It is next to the above signs so take a look while you are looking at the other ones. Our Awesome Ranger who made these is a climber so is super knowledgeable.
