The Side of Vegas that Doesn't Stay in Vegas !
The time is always perfect time for exploring a side of Las Vegas you may not even
know exists - the scenic beauty that surrounds the world's most exciting
destination. Check out gorgeous rock canyons, majestic mountains and more! At least 3 days of discovery are waiting for you.
The western edge of Las Vegas offers spectacular outdoor adventures. You'll start your day with a full cooked to order breakfast at Embassy Suites Las Vegas. Then head out for a beautiful hike through the gorgeous red sandstone cliffs at Red Rock Canyon. Picnic areas, cycling, hiking, climbing and horseback riding are available to enhance your experience and the visitor center contains historical and geological exhibits, a cactus garden and even a bookstore. Enjoy the scenic 13-mile drivable loop which meanders throughout Red Rock Canyon.
On Day 2 you can tour one of the man made wonders of the world - the Hoover Dam. Make sure not to miss the photo op with the new Hoover Dam Bypass Bridge! Or, better yet, from the bypass parking area, climb the designated stairs to the top, and peer back down at the Hoover Dam from high atop the pedestrian walkway! It's not for the faint of heart! Be sure to stop by the Boulder City/Hoover Dam Museum to see the history behind this amazing structure. Enjoy lunch and a stroll down main street of this charming small town.
On your third day of discovery, take your Vegas experience to new heights with a ride up to Mount Charleston Recreation Area and explore the Spring Mountains of the Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forest. The lower foothills are covered with pinion pine and juniper trees, and you may encounter a variety of wildlife, including Rocky Mountain elk, desert bighorn sheep, mule deer and others. There are numerous hiking trails and camping is also available.
You can also go horseback riding at Bonnie Springs Ranch, enjoy train rides and even a petting zoo. There's a lot to see outdoors, so come experience Vegas in a whole new way!
