Robbers Roost (unincorporated Kern County, California, also known as Robber's Roost and Bandit Rock) is a rock formation in the foothills of the Scodie Mountains portion of the Southern Sierra Nevada Mountain Range in the North Mojave Desert.

Robbers Roost lies west of Freeman Junction, which is approximately at the intersection of California highways 178 and 14.

Stagecoaches in this area often carried gold and other valuable gems from the local mines.

The jagged rocks were a hideout for Kern County's most notorious bandit gang, led by Tiburcio Vásquez.

[1][2] Robber's Roost is closed from February 1 through July 1 to allow solitude for bird of prey nesting.
