Get out of Las Vegas with a moderately challenging hike in Ice Box Canyon at Red Rock. Hiking in Red Rock Canyon is a popular activity in Sin City, but you’ll need a car to get you there. Once you reach mile marker 8 on the 13-mile loop drive, though, you’ll need to rely on your legs to get you any further.
The Ice Box Canyon hiking trail begins innocently enough, with a few stray rocks cluttering the trail. The trail meanders here and there through desert scrub. Like many of Red Rock’s trails, it’s not always obvious where the trail is exactly, but follow the footprints left in the dirt and you should be okay.
This particular trail is popular with climbers, and you’ll soon see why.
