Description
This first segment of the North Las Vegas Trail begins near the Upper Las Vegas Wash, a unique geologic feature known for its fossils. The trail travels southeast for just over two miles along the dry riverbed to Sandstone Ridge Park, which offers public restrooms, baseball and soccer fields, and basketball courts.
As the path winds its way through residential areas and desert landscaping, you can find comfort in the drinking fountains and shaded shelters along the trail.
Parking and Trail Access
Parking lots are available at the eastern end of the trail at Sandstone Ridge Park (1661 West Hammer Lane) and off Washburn Road.
