With winter officially over, it’s time to put away the cold-weather gear, dust off the hiking boots and head up to Las Vegas’ only full-service mountain Playcation resort. With the Resort on Mount Charleston as the base camp for an outdoor adventure, it’s just a short drive or walk to the pristine mountain vistas which feature miles of uncluttered trails beckoning for fun-seekers needing to shed the haze of winter. Whether you like your outdoors scenic or active, The Resort on Mount Charleston has plenty to offer as it is located in the heart of the Spring Mountains National Recreation Area; near numerous hiking and mountain bike trails, camping areas and picnic spots.
“For the next six months, there is no place better to be than up here on the mountain at The Resort on Mount Charleston,” notes Scott Mills, vice president of hospitality operations, for The Siegel Group. “There is not another full-service hotel/resort in the area and we are set up to help our guests get out and play. If you are looking for the perfect day trip, you can call ahead and we can have picnic lunches ready for you to take, but better yet, book one of our many packages and stay the night, relax and do some stargazing after a long day on the trails.”
To take help make the decision to playeven easier, the staff at the resort has put together hiking maps to help would-be adventurers choose the right path for them…from family friendly to advanced hikes.
