These are the best outdoor activities in Las Vegas.<\/em><\/p>\n When most people visit Las Vegas, they don’t venture outside the Strip and may not know there’s a local community of hikers, climbers, and ATVers. Lately, we’ve seen an influx of visitors who are also here for adventure.<\/p>\n After living in most of the major cities in the US, what convinced us to move back to Vegas was the easy access to the outdoors.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n This post may contain affiliate links, where we receive a small commission on sales of the products that are linked at no additional cost to you.

You can meet them at their tour site (a good choice if you plan activities before or after) or they offer pick-ups on the Strip<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n Local Tip:<\/strong><\/span> Wear clothes you’re okay to get dirty in. You will get covered in dust.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n More: 101 Things to Do in Las Vegas Bucket List<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n 15 Costa Di Lago, Henderson NV, 89011, US, map<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n Our first flyboarding experience was here in Las Vegas. We were nervous since we don’t have much experience with water sports, but our instructor assured us that if you can stand, you can fly<\/strong>! He was right, and we had so much fun.<\/p>\n After we finished, we asked the pros to show us some tricks. We reserved it for next time! \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n Local Tip:<\/strong><\/span> If you’re looking for more time in the water, you can rent SUPs, kayaks, electric boats, and there’s even a cable park and aqua park.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n 1512 Industrial Rd Boulder City, NV 89005, map<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n You’ll find a few different zip lines on the strip, like this one at the LINQ Promenade, but if we had to recommend one zip line, it would be the one in Bootleg Canyon.<\/p>\n You have four runs instead of one<\/strong> and you can enjoy the desert scenery. Plus. you get to check out the mountain biking trails from above.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n Pro Tip:<\/strong><\/span> Wear pants. They tend to be more comfortable and you won’t have to worry about your goods showing when you’re instructed to spread your legs. Hiking shoes are always a good idea since the excursion starts with a short hike.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n More: The LINQ Promenade – Your Ultimate Guide on What to See and Do<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n 1000 Yucca St, Boulder City, NV 89005, map<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n We have friends who have been trying to get us to start mountain biking. If you love exploring on two wheels then you need to check out Bootleg Canyon.\u00a0<\/p>\n There are over 20 mountain bike trails for all skill levels, including some of the gnarliest ones we’ve ever seen.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n Local Tip:<\/strong><\/span> If you’re visiting and don’t want to bother bringing your own bike, there are plenty of rental options nearby.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/section>\n 1000 Scenic Loop Dr, Las Vegas, NV 89161, map<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n The biggest reason we moved back to Vegas is that we started rock climbing after we moved away. We quickly learned that people from all over the world come to Red Rock Canyon to climb. Our favorite areas are Kraft Boulders<\/strong> (more touristy) and Willow Creek<\/strong> (more local).<\/p>\n If you don’t climb, some popular hikes are:<\/p>\n a scenic drive<\/strong>, and plenty of picnic spots for you to enjoy. Plus, you’ll regularly see people biking the scenic loop.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n Local Tip:<\/strong><\/span> Weather is generally 5-10 degrees cooler than in town. Also, most of the trails are exposed, so bring plenty of water and sunblock.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n More: 7 Breathtaking National Parks Near Las Vegas You Need to See<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n 6-34 Kyle Canyon Rd, Mt Charleston, NV 89124, map<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n When it’s too hot at Red Rock, we all head to Mount Charleston. It’s the perfect local getaway to escape the summer heat.<\/p>\n The popular hikes are Mary Jane Falls Trail<\/strong> and Lee Canyon<\/strong>. In the winter, it’s the closest spot to ski and snowboard<\/strong>.<\/p>\n We haven’t done much of the popular trails yet, because we end up climbing instead, but eventually, we’ll do them all.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n Local Tip:<\/strong><\/span> Cell service is hard to get up there, so be sure you know where you’re going before heading there or download offline google maps.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
