Overview

The Nellis Dunes Off-Highway Vehicle area, north of Las Vegas in Clark County, was created by Congress in 2014. The area covers over 10,000 acres, with over 900 acres allocated to Clark County for the OHV Park. The area is used for off-road racing events, training, and OHV rental businesses. The region has a wide variety of trails that are comprised of rock, gravel, and large sand dunes. There are countless trails that crisscross all over the desert, so this route was created to access some of the popular areas of the park.
