Hike at Historic Railroad Tunnels
Details
What to Expect:
The Historic Railroad Tunnel Trail is located in the Lake Mead National Recreation Area. This easy trail features panoramic views of Lake Mead and the Boulder Basin, 5 tunnels and remnants of the Hoover Dam’s construction. If desired, we can take an offshoot to the Bridge Walkway for a view of the Hoover Dam from a different perspective. The total elevation gain is about 971ft and about 8.1 miles in distance, mostly flat at a 5% grade. Event time relates to the actual hike as there will be no carpool for this event. For those who’d like to join, we’ll stop off for lunch at Harbor House Cafe before heading back into town.
We will meet at 9am in the parking lot just past the Lake Mead Visitor Center.
What to Bring:
- At least 2L of water
- Sunscreen/hat
- Proper footgear
- Hiking poles if desired for initial incline/end descent
