Very nicely kept trails. You appreciate the water and wild life there. For as long as I have been in Vegas/Henderson never realizing how close this area was.

Nice place for hiking. Good remains of the old Whitney Mesa Nature Preserve.. zoo. Family oriented. Its summertime so make sure to bring water, sunscreen and a hat.

What a find. This place is pretty awesome. I only docked a star because of some trash and dog mess laying around..come on people.The preserve trail system is one loop, essentially. I enjoyed this civic oasis in Feb/March. Rocky main trail with multiple side trails to choose from.

Awsome place to go run or just walk an take pictures. Dogs love it haven’t seen any coyotes but there out there I’m sure haven’t seen any rattle snakes either but they have signs posted. Every time I go out there I have a great time so don’t be to worried it’s a fun park.

This place is bigger than it looks. It was a nice walk, kids were able to handle it just fine. Even saw some coyotes enjoying the sun! Thats the only thing visitors should feel wary about when visiting Whitney Mesa Nature Preserve.

Great place for a morning walk/hike!! Very nice view and calm, not too trafficked. Nice place to get away from society. Easy hike, benches at the top, and doggy poop bags available as well. Dog friendly and good for young kids too.

This trail at Witney Mesa Nature Preserve has a nice 4 - 5 mile hike/walk along the upper and lower mesa. Easy hike with great views conveniently located along Sunset Rd, near Valle Verde.

Its a nice walk, some of the trails are bit too steep. The wildlife here are a cool glimpse to see, there a lizards and rabbits almost everywhere. Beware of rattlesnakes, be cautious other than that, have a good time.

Pretty nice desert trails... BBQ areas, trails, animals, nature...This preserve is also a great stop for Pokemon Go players...If you go, remember that its a wild area. There are snakes and they may be near the many paths...

Cute, small area. Bbqs and nice views. No playground equipment for little kids but there are a few trails and open areas to run around. Bathrooms are a bit unkept but not nasty.

Review №29

Trails are not kid friendly, lots of trash throughout the trails, and pictures from Google make this place look really nice, but in reality it makes me feel like I need a tetanus shot. #Truth

This place stays more cleaner than other parks within the neighborhood...probably because its more hidden?
