On a smaller level, intricate erosional sculpting of rocks and ledges results in limitless expressions of natural art. Thanks to the varied landscape of Red Rock Country, each of these areas presents a different aspect of the land. Each possesses a unique personality. If you ve never been to Red Rock Country, I recommend visiting the national parks and monuments first. They present the easiest and most accessible way to see the splendor of Red Rock Country.
Paved roads lead to many of the best viewpoints, and rest facilities are readily available.
The size of these parks is huge. Many days could be spent at each one merely beginning to explore the day-hiking possibilities. All parks and monuments have camping facilities available and most also have motel accommodations nearby. Once you desire more intimacy with the land, I strongly recommend a backpacking trip, be it an overnighter or a longer expedition. However, be aware that this arid land is unforgiving.
