Waterfall Hikes Near Las Vegas, NV
within 50 miles
Northwest of Las Vegas, Kyle Canyon climbs into the Spring Mountains, and all three falls on this page live up there. Mary Jane Falls is the popular hike at 3.2 miles. Little Falls suits kids at 0.7 miles with 200 feet of gain. Big Falls turns serious, 4.2 miles and 1,000 feet of climbing, rated hard. Dogs are allowed on each trail, and the water depends on snowmelt, so spring gives the best flow and late summer often runs dry.
