Confirmed from Anthem East Trailhead's own listing, the park or land manager's website, and runner reviews. Blank cells mean we could not verify that fact — we would rather say "not reported" than invent one. There is no Easy / Moderate / Hard rating on this page on purpose: a one-word difficulty score tells you nothing about whether a trail suits your run. Surface, distance, shade and hours do.
Paved, graveled and dirt trails for walking and hiking, plus mountain biking, with valley and Las Vegas Strip vistas.
What runners say about Anthem East Trailhead
“The Anthem East Trailhead, located in the Henderson area of Nevada, is a scenic and enjoyable spot for outdoor enthusiasts.”
“The paved portions and well-worn paths make it a comfortable option for people of all ages.”
Nice trail -- its paved in some parts and rough on some others depending on how far you go. A gradual incline can be a nice challenge for some. I imagine during the hotter months that this could be a punishing experience.
Trail running is what I enjoy and this trail met my need. It starts as a paved trail but after .75 it goes to gravel. Packed gravel so don’t worry about loose gravel. Most of the trails I saw out there were single track to include some” only horse trails” but I ran them anyway. You could see Vegas from far away too.
Love the trails there, hiking or mountain biking. Climb to the top and get spectacular views of the Vegas valley.
Great long trail, don’t forget to adjust your suspension. Perfect outdoors spot.
