TRAILS

Four trails at the Springs Preserve lead visitors through the cultural and environmental history of the Las Vegas Valley. The trails are open daily from 9:00 am until 5:00 pm. Each trail features interpretive displays, allowing visitors to experience the Springs Preserve in its natural environment. Discover how Native Americans, early settlers, and Mormon missionaries relied on the Springs to survive.

GARDENS

The eight-acre Botanical Gardens at the Springs Preserve features a wide range of desert landscapes and demonstrates native and non-native desert plant life with interpretive stations and hands-on activities. Unique features of the garden include the Watering Can Theater for irrigation instruction, the Tool Shed Theater, a children’s theater featuring molded mushroom-shaped chairs, a weather station with real-time weather data, the Enabling Garden, which demonstrates options for people who have physical challenges, and the Frame House, a 70-seat kitchen area for outdoor cooking demonstrations.
