ALL of these gems are less than an hour drive from the strip 🤯
📍 Valley Of Fire State Park
This is an absolute GEM of a State Park. The two highlights here would have to be The Fire Wave and Mouse’s Tank Road 😍
The Fire Wave Trail is short and easy but the pay off is incredible! The hike is only 1.3 miles total with only 150ft of elevation. Pets are allowed 🔥
Mouse’s Tank Road is a straight shot right through the heart of the park where you will find the most iconic photo ops 📸
📍 Red Rock Canyon Scenic Drive
There’s a $20 fee (day pass) per vehicle but if you ride your horse in it will only cost you $5... or your America The Beautiful Pass will get you in for free 🎟️
There’s a ton that you can do here in the way of hiking and rock climbing... but if you only have a short amount of time... Be sure to at least do the 13 mile (one way loop) scenic drive 🚗
The scenic drive takes about 30-40 minutes if you don’t really stop. However there are lots of pull offs that come with some incredible views so give yourself a bit of extra time to pull over and take it all in 👁️👁️
Pro Tip: Go for sunrise and you will be in for such a treat 🔥🔥🔥
📍 Seven Magic Mountains
Literally right off of Highway 15 and it’s super accessible so it makes for the perfect quick and easy adventure 🗺️
Seven Magic Mounts is one of the largest land based art installations in the U.S. and it’s open to the public 24/7 FREE of charge. The locally sourced limestone boulders weigh up to 25 ton each 🪨🎨
📍 The Hoover Dam
This is literally the perfect roadtrip stop. When standing on top of this modern marvel of engineering you can actually be in two states at the same time 😍
The Hoover Dam creates Lake Mead which at 28 trillion gallons of water is the largest reservoir in the U.S. 🇺🇸
Be sure to add these places to your bucketlist and save this post for your next trip to Las Vegas ⤵️
