Vasquez Rocks has amazing rock formations and lots of places to explore. You will enjoy the scenic views all around, and the incredible photo spots. This location is also very popular in the movie industry, used in films such as Star Trek, Planet of the Apes, and more.
This is a Natural Park Area located in Santa Clarita, within the Sierra Pelona Mountains. It features amazing diagonal rock formations, created because of the force between two tectonic plates pushing against each other.
This place is a photographer's paradise, and every spot in this 900+ acre land has a different look. Vasquez Rocks is also known for the locations' appearance in several famous movies like Star Trek, The Flintstones, Wild Wild West, Austin Powers, Planet of the Apes and many more.
You will surely enjoy spending a day here. There was so much to see, and so many rocks to climb. They have some hiking trails within the location too, if you want to get your steps in, but I recommend this for family trips where you have kids that want to play around and explore, and have adults that just want to kick back and relax.
