Calico Tanks Trail

The Calico Tanks Trail is a unique hike that takes you through beautiful sandstone rock formations in Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area. As you make your way, you’ll come to a number of natural rock pools, known as “tanks,” which are filled when there’s been enough rain. This hike follows an out and back route. It is on the shorter side, but requires a good amount of scrambling and maneuvering over rocks. Despite the short length, most hikers consider this a hard trail. This is one of the most popular and photo worthy hikes in the area. During some portions of the year, access to the canyon requires a timed ticket.
