Adventure Coming Soon: Fall – Spring
Ice Box Canyon is perhaps the most popular hiking area in Red Rock Canyon, based on the number of hikers and the general activity one can see there at just about any time. Why is Ice Box Canyon so popular?
From I-215 in Summerlin at the Red Rock Casino, take Hwy 159 (Red Rock Canyon Road) West toward the mountains. Red Rock Canyon is the 2nd turnoff to the right, about 4 miles after leaving Summerlin. You will need a reservation to enter the area and gain access to the scenic drive. Once on the scenic drive, the Ice Box Canyon parking area is half way around the Scenic Drive Loop just after the Willow Spring turnoff.
