Directions

Clark County Wetlands Park is a 2,900-acre natural area along the Las Vegas Wash that serves as the valley's primary riparian habitat, attracting over 300 bird species. The paved and unpaved trail network is excellent for birding, nature walks, and cycling, with a well-staffed nature center offering free educational exhibits. Early morning visits during migration season are genuinely spectacular for birders. The eastern location means most tourists never find it, keeping it authentically local.
