Description

The Desert Hills trails offers a fun mix of technical climbs and descents, flowy single tracks and small rock gardens. At the peak, you get an amazing view of Las Vegas and even Red Rock Canyon. Ride this trail system multiple times or hop on over to another one of the amazing systems nearby! 

Other Information

The trails are best used in the early morning during summer to escape the midday heat. Occasional rain storms may loosen up the trails so always ride with caution!
