About the Program

Camp Potosi Park is a seasonal multi-activity camp located at 11480 Mount Potosi Canyon Rd in Las Vegas, serving kids and teens age 6 to 17 across two brackets, 6 to 12 and 13 to 17.

The program mixes outdoor adventures, recreational activities, nature exploration, sports, and arts and crafts, which is the standard combination for a multi-activity day camp: enough variety that kids move between physical activity, creative projects, and time outdoors rather than repeating one activity all day. The listing notes the setting is outdoor, fitting the mountain canyon location away from the Las Vegas valley floor.

Hours run Monday through Friday, generally 7:30 AM to 5:30 PM, with Wednesday closing slightly earlier at 5:00 PM, and the camp closed on weekends. Because the camp operates seasonally rather than year-round, families should confirm which months it is currently running before planning around it, since the specific season is not detailed further in the directory.

The Mount Potosi Canyon location puts this camp outside the city in a canyon and mountain setting, which is a different experience from a park-based or indoor day camp closer to central Las Vegas. That distance is worth factoring into drop-off and pickup planning, especially for families without their own transportation to the canyon area.

No pricing or website is listed for Camp Potosi Park in the directory. For registration, current seasonal dates, and cost per week or session, call (702) 455-8200 directly. Given the outdoor, canyon setting, it is also worth asking what campers should bring in terms of sun protection, water, and appropriate footwear for the terrain, since desert canyon conditions differ from a shaded city park.

Families new to the canyon location should also plan extra drive time compared to a valley park, and check current road and weather conditions before heading out, since mountain routes can be affected by conditions that do not touch the Las Vegas valley floor.

First Visit Guide

What most outdoor and hiking programs expect. Confirm the details with Camp Potosi Park before you go.

What to bring

  • More water than you think. A liter per person minimum, more from May through September, because out here heat ends hikes long before tired legs do.
  • Closed-toe shoes, hat, sunscreen, snacks
  • A downloaded or printed trail map. Cell coverage drops fast in the canyons.

Before you go

  • Check park hours and reservations. Red Rock's scenic drive uses timed entry part of the year.
  • Start early. By mid-morning in summer the trails are a hazard, not a workout.
  • Tell someone which trail you're taking.

The first visit

The easiest first outing is a ranger-led family program: short distances, shade breaks, and a guide who knows where the restrooms are.

For sensory-sensitive kids

Open trails are naturally calm. Pack ear protection anyway for windy overlooks, and pick out-and-back trails so your child always knows the way out is the way you came.
