    This was our first time here and we were really impressed. It's such a huge, beautiful park and…read moredefinitely a great spot to get outside and unwind. Right now the main playground is closed for the month due to construction (it looks like they're replacing the ground), which was a little disappointing, but there's still plenty to enjoy. The pond is the highlight, filled with ducks, turtles, and pigeons, which makes it really fun for kids (and adults) to watch. There's also a peaceful waterfall that adds a calming vibe, and several bridges you can walk across that give you great views of the water from different angles. The walking paths are wide and perfect for strollers, bikes, or just a nice casual walk. There's also lots of open grassy space for picnics, playing, or just relaxing. Even with the playground closed, it didn't feel like a wasted trip at all. We'll definitely be back once construction is finished to experience everything fully.

My little loves this park but it's far away so we only visit on occasion. We normally walk the pond area first to check out the geese and turtles. Then check out the dinosaurs and sand area. We have visited when the splash pad was on and it was a blast. Def recommend visiting.

    I have been wanting to hike this state park for awhile now. We were in town recently so my son and…read moreI decided to finally check it out. We arrived for a hike on a Friday early afternoon. Ice Age Fossils State Park is located in a nice secluded area close to a residential neighborhood and school in North Las Vegas. Free parking is accessible in the large parking lot out front. There is a visitor center that offers an interesting and informative natural history exhibit with fossil displays. A small gift shop is located inside as well. It is here where they charge a $3.00 entrance fee for adults, while kids 12 and under are free. There are large shaded structures with plenty of tables for picnics for large groups and families. There are a few easy short hikes offered. No hike was longer than a 3 mile loop. We opted for the Megafauna trail and Big Dig trail which was about a 2 mile hike loop. The Megafauna trail has life sized animal sculptures that once roamed the Tule Springs. Whereas the Big Dig trail has trenches bulldozed by Tule Springs expedition where they discovered fossils. It was a nice breezy walk for this loop. The animal sculptures were fascinating to see. It was nice to hike through the rocky trenches and see how they were able to do their scientific work. Overall we enjoyed our experience at Ice Age Fossils State Park. The park rangers staff were nice and welcoming. This state park was only a quick 30 minutes drive from where we were staying at in the Southwest Las Vegas area. Since it was mid February the cool weather was perfect for a day hike. My son and I enjoyed exploring this hidden gem state park and we hope to be back.

    As I stand in the middle of this park, it is hard to fathom that during the Ice Age or cooler…read moreintervals of the Pleistocene the Las Vegas wash was a green oasis. This oasis provided abundant vegetation and water for all kinds of wild animals such as the bison, American lions, sabertooth cats, wolves, camels and other creatures. Unfortunately this era vanished about 13,000 years ago. This park provides extensive history about the Ice Age and when Las Vegas was a very different and green place. When you first walk in to the visitor center, there is a small fee to pay of $3. After paying you are free to roam the museum, enjoy the exhibits, and walk the trails. There are four trails including the Las Vegas Wash Trail - 1.5 miles, Big Dig trail - 1.2 miles, Megafauna trail - 0.3, and the Connector Trail - 0.4. So many fossils have been found out here dating back to the 1930's. The "Big Dig" occurred in 1962-1963 where scientists, archeologists, biologists all worked together looking for evidence that humans once shared this valley with Ice Age. Results were inconclusive and the dig was stopped. Today there has been renewed interest in this area for study and through community efforts the Tule Springs Fossil Beds National Monument was created in 2014 followed by this park in 2017. There are still discoveries being made at these two places. One that is notable was in 2011 when students from UNLV uncovered a large tusk most likely from a juvenile mammoth. It had a small piece of newspaper wrapped around it. This leads researchers to believe that it was probably discovered during the Big Dig but put back. We found the museum, movie, and interactive exhibits very interesting We walked all the trails and checked out one of the huge trenches that was carved out for the Big Dig. The park encompasses 315 acres and is located way out off Decatur on the northern edge of Tule Springs. Large parking lot and huge picnic area. As I local, I highly recommend checking out this fascinating park. The kids will love all the outside activities and metal animals around the park. Adults will enjoy the history. It is best to visit in the late fall, winter or spring. It is very exposed and not a great place to be in the summer due to extreme heat. Pets are welcome but please remember to pick up after your pet.

Response Time: N/A Professionalism: (Depends on you and how you treat others) Date: 4/11/26 Dissertation: We came here for Pirate Fest, but the park itself deserves its own little standing ovation, preferably with a dramatic pirate hat tip. This place is huge, beautiful, and surprisingly impressive. It has that rare park energy where you can wander around and still feel like you have only discovered about 12 percent of it. The grounds are spacious, clean, and well kept, with plenty of room for events, families, kids, dogs, festival chaos, and people like me pretending I am "just going for a stroll" when really I am hunting for snacks. For a big event, it worked really well. There was enough open space that it did not feel like everyone was crammed together in one sweaty little patch of grass questioning their life choices. The park gives you room to breathe, walk, sit, explore, and fully commit to whatever themed event you accidentally became emotionally invested in. Overall, this is a vast, beautiful park with great event potential and plenty of space to enjoy. We came for the pirates, but the park itself was definitely part of the treasure

    This park is located on the outskirts of the Vegas Area. There is a price list for the entrance…read morefees located at the entrance. It was $6 for 1 car on our visit. The lady at the gate was friendly and efficient. There are numerous picnic areas, fishing from the lake/spring at the "center" of the park, and paved walking paths/trails around the park. There are several lots along the entrance road--just keep driving till it ends if you cannot find a parking or want to start walking further in the park. Birth he picnic areas and portions of the trails have shade. There are grassy areas as well. This is a very nice place to take a walk during the temperate months or near dusk or dawn when it is cooler in the area. If you are visiting the area and want to get away from the busy city or live here and want a nice place to walk, fish, picnic, or sit, this is a great place to go. Also, they have a bunny rescue that lets you adopt bunnies to save them like a dog rescue--open hours are posted in the park.

Everytime the trout stock happens the birds eat just about everything they will not stock large mouth bass in here. The Marshalls are never here to check fishing licenses and unfortunately the people that keep most of the fish don't have one. I offered to pay for a large mouth bass stocking out of my own pocket and they denied. DO BETTER

There's plenty of it, and it's super close to the dog park, which is always a plus when you've got excited pups ready to go. The park itself is split into a small dog area and a large dog area, and both sides were well maintained. The grass was green and mostly clean, and there were multiple shaded seating areas to relax while keeping an eye on your dog. I really appreciated the water fountains placed around specifically for the dogs, they looked clean and well kept, which isn't always the case at dog parks. There are also lots of trees, so even on warmer days, you can find shade easily. There were easily 15+ dogs there during our visit, and the overall vibe was great. Most of the dogs came over to say hello, and they all appeared healthy, well groomed, and social. No aggressive behavior at all... just the occasional male dog trying to assert dominance, but nothing escalated and owners stayed attentive and in control. That alone says a lot about the type of crowd this park attracts. Speaking of people...everyone we encountered was friendly, respectful, and responsible. It was really nice to see that every dog owner we noticed picked up after their pets. That level of consideration makes a huge difference. Beyond the dog park, the rest of the park was just as lively. The volleyball courts were packed with groups having a good time, and the fields were full of soccer teams ranging from little kids to teens. Even the restroom was well maintained, soap to wash your hands, full rolls of toilet paper, no trash or debris on the floor no floaters in the toilets. The playground was surprisingly not crowded, and it looks like it's been updated....there were no traditional slides, but instead more interactive and physical play structures like climbing ropes, stairs, and obstacle style features that make it fun in a different way. Even the parking lot experience stood out... people were patient, respectful, and courteous. One driver even pulled back into their spot after starting to back out just to let me pass, even though I had paused for them. It's little things like that that really add to the overall experience. All in all, it was an amazing day at the park. The weather was perfect, which definitely helped set the tone, but the cleanliness, friendly atmosphere, and thoughtful layout of the park really made it stand out. This is one of those places you'll want to keep coming back to.
