There are some hiking trails that you can use to when you are doing hiking in Las Vegas. They are:
- Mouse’s Tank, Valley of Fire
“Mouse” was the name of a Native American outlaw. The moderately easy, self-guiding trail to Mouse’s Tank (a series of natural catchments) passes the best petroglyphs in the park.
- Canyon Overlook Trail, Zion National Park
A moderate, short day-hike to the overlook, which is right above the Great Arch.
- Observation Point – Hidden Canyon Trail, Zion
The 7.5-mile (12-km) round-trip hike is moderately difficult to hidden Canyon, then strenuous to Observation Point, but the view from the point is the park’s finest.
- Riverside Walk, Zion
The paved walk at the base of a gorge is especially delightful in early October when the fall foliage is at its most beautiful.
- Bright Angel Trail, Grand Canyon
The entire 19-mile (30-km) down- and-back round-trip descends 4,400 ft (1,342 m) and takes most hikers two days. Rest houses and a campground are on the route.
- Rim Trail, Grand Canyon
Extending from the Village area, the partially paved trail can be accessed at many points along Hermit Road and its terminus at Mather Point. Little elevation change and great views.
- South Kaibab Trail, Grand Canyon
Access to the trailhead is by shuttle bus. The steep trail descends 4,500 ft (1,372 m), with no water along the down land back 14-mile (22-km) route.
- Wildrose Canyon to Wildrose Peak, Death Valley
A 4-mile (6-km) climb through woodland to the crest of the Panamint Mountains. Superb views.
- Golden Canyon to Zabriskie Point, Death Valley
A low-elevation, 6-mile (9.5-km) round-trip hike featuring the finest badlands scenery in the monument, and traversing an area of fully exposed rock strata that represents millions of years.
- Coffin Peak Trail, Death Valley
This easy trail starts at Dante’s View, following a canyon into the Black Mountains. Vegetation is dominated by mormon tea, shadscale, and spiny desert shrubs.
