Red rocks in the distance

We here at  Red Rock Campground offer a really fun  program for adults and children. We have a Red Rock Ranger come out to our Amphitheater and do a discussion on a lot of different things local to the area. It might be about animals or local history of the area, But always fun and exciting. We have a campfire weather permitting.  Campers love to get involved with questions and just information, as some of our visitors its their first time to the area and are very interested. Our Ranger is very good on sparking the interest of our campers so come and have fun as the information that is discussed is  fun. So its usually in the evening where you can have a good day at red rock canyon and then come back to the campground and relax in the sitting area around a nice fire and enjoy.
