Boulder City
Boulder City is about a 25-30 minute drive from Henderson but, offers a fun area for food and drinks. We recommend checking out The Coffee Cup for breakfast, Boulder Dam Brewing or Beer Zombies for a drink!
Historic Railroad Hiking Trail
Another of our favorite hikes! This trail goes through the tunnels created for the building of the Hoover Dam. It's a flat, scenic hike along Lake Mead. If you're lucky, you might see some big horned sheep! This trail is about 4 miles out/back if you stop at the gate/bathroom area. However, if you're feeling ambitious, you can continue all the way to the Hoover Dam! On the way you'll encounter a 'graveyard' of dam parts. Turn into lake Mead Recreational Park and you'll find a small parking lot on the right, past the visitor center and before you have to pay. Parking is limited and free! If the lot is full, you can park at the visitor center.
Hike the Las Vegas Overlook Trail
One of our favorite hikes! A moderate trail with great views of Lake Las Vegas and the Vegas Valley. We recommend taking the left trail and doing an out and back vs. the loop.
Chicken N Pickle - Henderson
A great spot to play pickleball, enjoy lawn games like cornhole, giant Jenga, Connect 4, or Battleship, all while savoring delicious food and hanging out at one of the multiple bar areas!
