Confirmed from Las Vegas Upper Wash Trail Head'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.
Hiking and biking area that's good for children.
What runners say about Las Vegas Upper Wash Trail Head
“It is relatively quiet, the street crossings are small, easy, and highly visible, and the trail is very well maintained.”
I really enjoy this trail. It is relatively quiet, the street crossings are small, easy, and highly visible, and the trail is very well maintained. The people who use it tend to be friendly as well :) Very nice trail to ride your bike, take a walk with your kids, etc.
Nice walk… wouldn’t consider it a hike but it definitely was a great walk… Visiting from Phoenix Az
I do not have a vehicle and generally walk to the store. I usually stop at this location and rest for a few minutes, drink my beverage, eat a snack and then continue walking home. It's very quiet and relaxing and I enjoy the surroundings. Thank you.
Looking forward to making this my go-to hiking spot nearby, cuz it's just so difficult to find a walking trail in Vegas that is both worthwhile and close to home.
