Elephant Rock is a 1,926-foot-elevation (587-meter) summit in Clark County, Nevada, United States.
[5] Elephant Rock is composed of Aztec Sandstone which formed as lithified sand dunes in a desert about 180–190 million years ago during the Early Jurassic.
[6] Precipitation runoff from the landform drains east to Lake Mead via Thomas Wash and Valley of Fire Wash. Topographic relief is modest as the summit rises 120 feet (37 meters) above the Valley of Fire Road in 265 feet (81 m).
Access to the arch is from a 0.25-mile trail that starts at a roadside parking lot with information and restrooms.
[1][8] Elephant Rock is set within the Mojave Desert which has hot summers and cold winters.
