Valley of Fire

The Valley of Fire is in Nevada just an hour north east of Las Vegas. It's a great place for family camping. With the location so close to Vegas you could have a weekend getaway or just take a day trip to let the kids climb and do some hiking.  Valley of Fire fun fact - it was Nevada's very first state park.

They have places for tent camping and lots of rv spaces some with hook ups. It's first come, no reservations. Every site has a fire pit. Camp fires are allowed.


There are huge beautiful rocks every where.


There is wild life including this big horn sheep that walked by.

There are hiking trails all over the state park.

Many of the hikes are kid friendly.



You can see petroglyphs at various locations throughout the park.



They have a small visitors center with information on all aspects of park. It's a great educational opportunity for kids.
