Seven Magic Mountains is a large scale art exhibit by Swiss artist Ugo Rondinone, located in the desert south of Las Vegas.
This exhibit features seven thirty to thirty-five foot high rock towers consisting of thirty-three colorfully painted limestone boulders.
Opened to the public in May 2016 (two year run), the exhibit has been so popular that it remains on view to this day (Sept. 2021) with possible extension several years into the future.
Situated on three acres of federally owned land (administrated by the Bureau of Land Management), there are interpretative signs, a dirt parking lot and a walking path to the exhibit.
Tips:
Visit early morning: better light / fewer people.
No admission fee, no restrooms or other facilities.
Follow established unpaved walking paths, avoid trampling the surrounding area (watch for snakes).
Bring plenty of water, don't forget sunscreen, sunglasses and a hat. Pets are welcome, please pick up after them.
Cameras are welcome (private noncommercial use only), photographic accessories are not allowed.
Please respect the artist, his work and the site: Leave no Trace.
