Hiking to Cowboy Cave in Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area

Sometimes you just gotta get out and find some shade to hike in! And I did just that. Cowboy Cave, located right across from Red Rock Canyon proper, and within the Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area is a great little hike, less than 2 miles round trip. It offers so much payoff for minimal effort. And on top of that some GLORIOUS shaded areas as you hike towards the end of the journey, which is a cave. Another added payoff is that you can visit the horses that live there! These horses are part of Cowboy Trail Rides, a horseback riding tour company located right near the start of this trailhead for Cowboy Cave!

Nature surrounding Vegas is just so beautiful! I really miss living there. The best storm I ever witnessed in my life was while I was living there, it was spectacular. Beautiful video Nix, made me reminisce about my days over there years ago. And those horses!! sooo cute!

We have certainly had quite a few storms here recently. Which have, thankfully, brought the temps down!

@@NixAdventrex oh yeah the heat is something else as well. But at least it’s dry heat. I can’t stand humidity!

The Mojave Desert is so beautiful. I love the trail beer idea! A couple other channels I follow do that and I will have to try it too! Seems there are always a lot of people on the trail these days. Enjoyed this video as always!

"Trail beer" is a great reward, especially on a hot day!

you missed the huge cave. Cowboy cave was up above you before the ladder.

[@NixAdventrex]

Well then, I guess I'll have to back! :)

I hiked up there once many years ago...I forget where I ended up but the trail just kind of faded out.

[@NixAdventrex]

It's a great little hike with so much beauty. You don't to go into Red Rock and pay. You get a cool reward, that being the cave at the end. And then horses as well!
