Red Cliffs Nature Trail is also a popular 1 mile hike here. The massive sandstone & volcanic rocks shoot up like otherworldly cathedrals over 300 ft.

There are endless rock formations to explore. You might even recognize a few spots because Hollywood has been filming here since the 1930s!

Spend all day adventuring here...just bring plenty of water & sun protection. Always check weather before a visit, as temperatures fluctuate quickly.

A visitor center & restrooms are located at the north end of the park by the Ricardo Campground area (stay here if you want to enjoy the night sky).
