The scenery is gorgeous and the climb in elevation and switch backs made it a great ride on our E-bikes! Went 12 miles each way beginning from our campsite in Boulder Beach Campground at Lake Mead! This also connects the the Historic Railroad Trail going the other direction, still from campsite. Did that trail too. Lobed them both!
This trail is 35.5 miles and none of it is flat. The three steepest hills going counterclockwise are 13%, 14%, and 15%. I think going clockwise gives you less steep climbs, but longer ones. It also depends where you start. I started at the Visitor Center, so going counterclockwise gave me 2.5 miles downhill at the beginning and several miles at the end, but sharper climbs. It’s 3264 feet of ascent. The part that is a railroad grade is 3% going up to Boulder City and Railroad Pass. The best pavement is along Lake Mead and closest to Railroad Pass and the casino there.
Your map is outdated, the trail now continues thru all the way to Decatur in the North and ends only about a mile before the Lower Las Vegas Wash Trail which goes all the way to Lake Las Vegas.
It is a great trail system, and as a taxpayer, I would love to take advantage of what I am paying for, but half the time it is blocked with homeless encampments that block the bridges entirely. Just another gamble in Las Vegas.
We finally got back to ride my favorite trail. So disappointed with the condition of the surface. The cracks across the path every 30 feet were so gapping, it jarred our bikes and backs. It was this way the whole ride and was a very uncomfortable ride. We had to ride the street to get back to the trailhead where we parked. Will not do this path again and do not recommend it to any biker.
This is a very nice trail except that for the section from mile 3 and beyond the expansion joint cracks are quite large...most average about 2 inches wide. It is quite a jolt on a road bike and I always worry about pinch flats. If someone could fill these with crushed stone/sand it could be a 5 star trail.
We started at Pecos and made it to Acaia Park. We will do the whole trail this week. When we got to Aroya Park we missed the trail, so we spent some time riding around the park. If you get to Aroya Park go over the bridge and make a right, you will get back on the trail. It’s a very nice ride for our e-bikes.
I didn't see a single flamingo on this trail. This is not as advertised.
Tons of homeless people though.
Hi! Woman here ¿¿¿¿I want to run around 5am but the sun doesn’t right rise until 630 am. Are there lights on this trail?
I like this trail, couple cool lil parks, near home. Anyone think or know if it might actually go to lone mountain?
I love walking this trail every morning but now there are tents that are camping out with homeless people. It’s starting to smell very foul and a lot of garbage is starting to accumulate. They aren’t harming anyone but it does make me feel uneasy when walking past it every morning. It’s only a matter of time before more tents start to camp there. It’s been about 3 weeks now and I’m surprised no one has done anything about it. Any information on who to call to remove them from the trail would be great, as I’m sure other people are feeling the same way.
