Getting Outdoors
One of the most common reasons that people come motorhome camping at the park is, of course, to marvel at the incredible rock formations that can be found there. The rocks have formed high pinnacles, some of which reach a height of 40 feet, all of which are separated with flat lanes that almost resemble streets, adding to the reason it was named 'City of Rocks." Just wondering through these incredible formations can take hours as it is worth taking your time to really admire them. Overall there are 5.5 miles of hiking trails around the park, all just waiting to be explored before heading back to the state park RV campgrounds.

Although the park is small, it still has nearby campsites ideal for those that want to experience desert life for the night.
