A hiker's paradise
From playgrounds to decked-out dog parks, to expansive recreation centers and hiking trails, Foothills offers multiple opportunities to enjoy the outdoors. The 10-acre Haley Hendricks Park is a destination for skateboarders and volleyball players alike to test their skills. At 160 acres, Heritage Park is the largest multi-use sports complex in the Las Vegas Valley. It offers ballfields, a splash pad, an amphitheater, outdoor classrooms and multi-purpose fields. The adjacent Heritage Park Aquatic Complex features two indoor pools and is open year-round. An eye-catching aspect of Heritage Park is the fenced-in, 5-acre Bark Park. Henderson’s largest, it was designed with input from pet owners and boasts a life-sized dog statue that pups can play on, bone-shaped benches, an agility course, a splash area, drinking stations and a giant doghouse-shaped pavilion with a mural of a bulldog. Kids can also let their imagination run wild at Mountain Lake Park, themed to reflect the Mojave Desert, where they can climb on giant, colorful lizard sculptures. Avid hikers, mountain bikers and horseback riders also have a variety of adventures close by. Burkholder Trail, which connects to the area’s most popular River Mountains Loop Trail, can be accessed in Heritage Park and allows hikers to get to Lake Mead Parkway Trail. The 34-mile River Mountains Loop winds through the mountain range and links Lake Mead National Recreation Area, the Hoover Dam and the rest of the valley. Hikers, cyclists and campers enjoy panoramic views of the valley, access to a network of other trails and catch glimpses of wildlife like bobcats and bighorn sheep. Lake Las Vegas is to the northeast, only an 8-mile drive for residents. A destination for boating, stand-up paddle boarding, flyboarding and other fun on the water, the lake also has a full-service marina with dining, a resort, golf, a shopping village and festivities like yacht cruises. Along the way, residents can stop at the Art Walk of the Lake Mead Parkway Trail, a community-led project that fills the trail with nature-based art like painted rocks, chalk designs and trail stone markers, known as cairns.
River Mountain Loop Trail is over 20 miles of paved paths through the desert wilderness.
The River Mountains Loop Trail offers 34 miles of hiking, biking, and horseback riding.
