City of Las Vegas Trail Facts The city of Las Vegas offers many ways for the community to discover, explore and enjoy the new trails that have been built in its nei ghborhoods. Currently there are approximately 104 miles of trails and trail connecting sidewalks for walking, biking and other non-motorized activities. Some of the trail segments feature landscaping, rest areas, benches, lighting, trash cans and pet waste stations. There are also 26 miles of equestrian and equestrian/pedestrian shared trails. The Las Vegas City Council’s ultimate plan is a 200+ mile trail network that, when completed, will interconnect the Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area, the outlying northwest and west areas through downtown Las Vegas to the mature east Las Vegas neighborhoods. The Las Vegas community is already enjoying these trail treasures: Angel Park Trail is approximately three miles in length, running south along Durango Drive, from Bruce Trent Park to Angel Park, continuing west adjacent to the Angel Park Golf Course to Alta Drive. The Angel Park Trailhead serves the trail just south of the Summerlin Parkway. The City’s segment of the regional Las Vegas Wash Trail runs southward along the Las Vegas Wash from Owens Avenue to Charleston Boulevard. The regional trail currently reaches north through the County and City of North Las Vegas to the Beltway and as far south as the Clark County Wetlands Park. The Bonanza Trail is located north of the Summerlin Parkway, connecting the Charlie Kellogg - Joe Zaher Sports Complex to Bill Briare Family Park, continues south on Tenaya Way to Westcliff Drive, runs eastward south of US95 to Jones Boulevard; heads north on Jones to the north side of the US95; continuing east to Decatur Boulevard; then north to Bonanza Road; east to Valley View Boulevard; and southward to the Las Vegas Springs Preserve. Signage guides users along the 6-mile trail. The Buckskin Cliff Shadows Trailhead is located west of the 215 Beltway and west of Cliff Shadows Parkway at Cheyenne Avenue. The Gilmore Cliff Shadows Trailhead is located along the north side of Alexander Road, to the west of the 215 Beltway and west of Cliff Shadows Parkway. The City’s portion of the regional Beltway Trail is from Charleston Boulevard along the west side of the CC-215 Beltway, running northward to Centennial Parkway. The Pioneer Trail begins east of Interstate 15 on Las Vegas Boulevard, between Bonanza Road and Washington Avenue. It runs north to Owens Avenue, south on Main Street, and heads west on Washington. The trail makes its way through Historic West Las Vegas, affectionately referred to as “The West Side,” highlighting historic properties zigzagging through the surrounding urban area, eventually arriving at the Las Vegas Springs Preserve on Valley View Drive. Floyd Lamb Park Trails within the Environmental Enhancement Areas of Floyd Lamb Park at Tule Springs. The trails can be accessed from within the park via Durango Drive and Brent Lane, as well as off of Racel Street, east of Durango Drive. The Lone Mountain Trail runs along the Buffalo Drainage Channel, between Buffalo Drive and Tenaya Way, from Summerlin Parkway north to Alexander Road and includes two pedestrian bridges at Lake Mead Boulevard and Cheyenne Avenue. The downtown Cultural Corridor Trail takes users from just east of the Mob Museum on Stewart Avenue at Casino Center Boulevard. It runs north on Casino Center to Bonanza Road; then east on Bonanza to Las Vegas Boulevard and northward on Las Vegas Boulevard to the Cultural Corridor Trail pedestrian bridge for access to the Neon Boneyard Park & Museum as well as the Natural History Museum, Mormon Fort and Cashman Field. Las Vegas has an abundance of park pathways for biking, walking, and even horseback riding at some locations: A 1.9-mile trail meanders through the Kellogg-Zaher Sports Complex, at 7901 W. Washington Ave. Bruce Trent Park, at 8851 Vegas Drive, has a 1.6-mile pathway. Children’s Memorial Park, at 6601 W. Gowan Road, has a one-mile trail. Floyd Lamb Park at Tule Springs, at 9200 Tule Springs Road, features approximately 4-miles of equestrian, pedestrian and bicycle trails. Other parks with trails include: AnSan Sister City Park at 7801 Ducharme Avenue Sunny Springs Park at 7620 Golden Talon Avenue Justice Myron E. Leavitt and Jaycee Community Park at St. Louis Avenue and Eastern Avenue. Trail funding is provided by the Bureau of Land Management through the sale of public lands as authorized by the Southern Nevada Public Land Management Act. This act keeps money from Nevada federal land sales in the state for parks and trail projects. Recreational venues remain a top priority for the Las Vegas City Council.
