I won't recommend it during the summer though as I am always out on trails ... with plenty of drinking water in your backpack, it's still doable all year round. This part of the trail, we hiked, located inside the Lake Mead National Park, so be prepared to pay a fee to enter. $25 entrance fee is valid for 7 days or $80 yearly pass. During our hike, I truly enjoyed the weather, and of course the blooming wild flowers! Prickly cactus flowers are colorfully outstanding from the boring desert landscape! The white poppies are popping everywhere, too! Beautiful yellow, white and purple flowers are covering the hillside all around the trail. The water is flowing in the wash and giving energy during the walk. I practically felt the energy from this beautiful sight! According to the sign on the trail entrance, it said that the trail is not maintained, enter on your own risk! Well, I found that the trail is very well maintained! You can't really miss it. The side of the trail has large rocks all the way. Especially on the beginning, on the upper level. Once you reach the narrow section, where the steps begin, you need to be careful going down. Then, when you reached the waterline you can follow the path carefully. The scenery is amazing! There is an unpaved parking area off of the road where you can find restrooms too.

As part of a dual hike, my friend and I first hiked the Bluff Trail and then drove across the wash…read morevia Northshore Road to get to this trail. Make sure you don't get confused. There are two Wetland trails. One is the 14.1 mile loop that starts from the Wetlands Park. This is a short hike from the downstream side of Lake Las Vegas as the Las Vegas Wash goes to Lake Mead. From the parking lot, you have two options. The fastest route is straight ahead where the trailhead sign is. The other trail is to the left of the pit toilet. It's not as steep, but it is a longer trip. After starting on what I'll refer to as the main trail, you'll soon come to a split in the trail with a section making a 90º turn. If all you want to do is see the wash from the top of the cliff, turn right here. If you want the full experience, keep hiking straight ahead. The trail will narrow, and you'll, descend to a point where there are two cautionary signs. This is also where the trail from the pit toilet comes up from the service road below. I recommend here that you take the right fork here. The steps are not as dependable straight ahead and it's steeper. Go to your right and soon you'll be almost at the level of the wash. Once on the road below, walk the opposite direction of your hike to this point and you'll get close to the weir that helps slow the water so more of the wash doesn't erode. Understand that about 200 million gallons of water gfo down this wash daily. The Las Vegas Wash is our river, if you will. It's lovely to see and listen too. Stay out of the water as it's both regular runoff and treated sewage. The easiest way back is to return the way you came. My friend and I did a harder way. We walked downstream until we came to the service road. We truned left and hiked the road back. While the footing is easier, the entire trip is uphill. Had we returned the way we came, ascending would be tougher, but once over, we'd have had flat going back to the car. We wanted the extra workout so we hiked the road. This is why we get the 1.5 mile round trip. Happy trails!

The…read moreShoreline Trail stretches from the former Las Vegas Bay boat launch area to the 3 Islands Overlook at 33 Hole about 2 miles south. When I hike this trail, it's because I'm hiking through what's known as White Owl Canyon and after going through some pipes to get to the old road, I return to the car by joining the Shoreline Trail about a mile from the parking area for 33 Hole and the 3 Islands Lookout. Some volunteers have done some nice work over the last couple of years by placing boulders along the trail so one knows where to go. This section has changed over the 7 years or so that I've been hiking the trail. The boulders work now because the level of the lake has fallen so much there's little danger that the trail will be covered by water and the rocks become useless. In fact, it has been very discouraging to watch the level of the lake drop so much that you now have to leave the trail to get to the edge of a stream that was once the lake. It is nice to see the water fowl and it's a pleasant hike when temperatures permit.

YELP 365 CHALLENGE 2014-(313/365) "A Hiking We Will Go! "…read more Any time there's a chance to explore the outdoors, it's an automatic 5 stars for me. Add to that, a bunch of great people and our resident hike expert Norm leading the pack, you got yourself one heck of an excursion! There were 10 of us on this chilly morning and it was my first time inside the Lake Mead Area. The views here are so breathtaking, pictures and reviews don't do any justice...you gotta get out there and experience this yourself! This hike is about 3 miles and involves different elevations, a bit of rock scrambling, going through a few tunnels and a brief time inside owl canyon where we saw great rock formations, and even an owl who was guarding his/her huge nest nearby. there were also tons of clam shells scattered around and old Budweiser and Coors cans from the peel tab era. There also was a random wood frame kinda thing during our hike which made all of us clueless as to why anything was being constructed. After a short walk on the paved road way, we looped around and began the trek back to our cars along the rock formed trail taking in the awesome scenery and a last scramble up the same hill we first went down back to the parking lot. Thanks again Norm for another great hike, and we'll join you on the trail once again for your next hike! ALOHA!!! Shaka Meter: \uuu/ \uuu/ \uuu/ \uuu/ \uuu/ 5

We don't have water here. We don't have nature in its truest form . The created bliss of Lake Las Vegas is something to see and experience. You need to stay here to truly appreciate and love what is happening here . You have your choice of a few places to stay for the evening. There is a Westin Resort and Hilton Hotel. I prefer the Westin mainly for the views and the quality of the resort style stay. You might think that a room at the Westin would be "resort," pricing . Not so ! They need to fill rooms. Our room, a lake view king suite was around $100, plus the resort fee. The Hilton is priced a bit lower. You decide what your best options are . Just know that you have options! It's all in what you are seeking to do. Come and play then stay a while and see what happens. Make sure and let yourself get back to normal and enjoy some rest.
