Before you go

Fees, access, and what people get wrong here.

  1. A Red Rock Pass is required to park at most developed trailheads. Buy it online, at the ranger station, or at trailhead kiosks.
  2. Several famous trailheads now run seasonal shuttles instead of parking. Confirm the current system before you go.
  3. Dispersed camping is restricted throughout the district. Read the posted closure map at the trailhead.
