The Lost Creek Trailhead is located in Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area, about 50 minutes west of Las Vegas, inside the Scenic Loop Road fee area.

From town, drive out to Red Rocks. From West Charleston at the Scenic Loop Road (Table 1, Site 0519), turn right onto Scenic Loop Road, pay the entrance fee, then drive around the one-way Scenic Loop Road for 7.2 miles to Willow Springs Road (Site 0526). Turn right onto Willow Spring Road and drive north for 0.2 miles to a large paved pullout with vault toilets on the left side of the road (Site 527). Park here; this is the trailhead.
