Moderate Hikes at Lake Mead National Recreation Area

Owl Canyon Trail narrows and deepens into a slot canyon with 100-foot vertical walls in the most confined section.

Today, remnants of the town are now visible thanks to the lowering water levels of Lake Mead.

From the summit, take in stunning views looking over Callville Bay and beautiful blue Lake Mead.

Lakeview hiking trail allows visitors to explore the beautiful mountainous landscape and the desert flora and fauna including creosote, brittle bush.

Bluffs Trail overlooks the Las Vegas Bay and Las Vegas Wash, where visitors can see a stark contrast in vegetation between wet and dry areas.

A perfect place to take in the desert in all its vastness and striking colors.

The Wetlands Trail follows a dry dirt trail down to the flowing Las Vegas Wash, where water from the Las Vegas Valley dispenses into Lake Mead and shapes the landscape through erosion.
