Welcome to Providence Mountains State Recreation Area
Visitors to Providence Mountains State Recreation Area are greeted by the sight of jagged slopes of gray limestone, topped by volcanic peaks of red rhyolite. Located on the eastern slope of the Providence Mountains Range, the park lies within the boundaries of the 1.6-million acre Mojave National Preserve. From its vantage point at 4,300 feet above the valley floor, the park headquarters offers stunning views of the surrounding Mojave Desert. On extremely clear days, the distant granite peaks of Arizona’s Hualapai Mountains are visible.

Dress in layers and carry water on outdoor walks. Spring and fall temperatures reach the 70s and 80s. June through August temperatures often exceed 100 degrees. The caverns maintain a constant 65-degree temperature throughout the year.
