Valley of Fire State Park

Absolutely gorgeous! I appreciated how easy it was to navigate the park - map is provided and signs are abundant. There were many different trails (long and short) for those who want to explore on foot - and also many stops by the road for those who wish to enjoy mainly via car. Clean and well kept. Toilets at nearly every stop. The park staff were all friendly and helpful. Highlight of my trip to... Absolutely gorgeous!

If you are visiting Las Vegas, and do you have a rental car, take the time to visit the valley of Fire. It is just a short drive outside of the city, and one of the most beautifully unique places on earth. If you go in the off-season, we went in early March, you will find the park is delightfully free from tourists. Take a slow drive down the road and I’m absorbed the gorgeous vistas, fiery glow f... If you are visiting Las Vegas, and do you have a rental car, take the time to visit the valley of Fire. It is just a short drive outside of the city, and one of the most beautifully unique places on earth. If you go in the off-season, we went in early March, you will find the park is delightfully free from tourists. Take a slow drive down the road and I’m absorbed the gorgeous vistas, fiery glow from rock formations, and hopefully wildlife. We got lucky to see a herd of mountain goats. I’m so glad that I decided to take this little excursion outside of the city. Plus after you pass through, you can drive on the North Shore of Lake Mead, which is another beautiful site to behold.
