Cottonwood Canyon

Cottonwood Canyon is a park and nature area at 915 Canyon Bluff Ct in Las Vegas, 89144, listed for kids ages 5 to 18 in brackets of 5 to 12 and 13 to 18. It operates year round and is open daily from 7:00 AM to 10:30 PM, giving families a wide window for both morning and evening visits.

Activities here are outdoor and self-directed rather than instructor-led: hiking, nature walks, wildlife observation, general outdoor exploration, and scenic views make up the offerings, with no classes or organized programs listed at this location. Amenities include hiking trails, nature trails, wildlife viewing areas, and scenic overlooks, so families can pick a shorter walk or a longer trail depending on a child's age and stamina.

Because this is an open park space rather than a staffed program, there is no fee, with the price range marked Free in the directory. That makes it a low-cost option for families who want to get kids outside without booking a class or paying admission, whether for a quick after-school walk or a longer weekend hike.

The 7:00 AM to 10:30 PM daily hours mean the space is accessible well outside typical school and work hours, which matters in Las Vegas where early morning or evening visits can be more comfortable than midday heat for much of the year. Wildlife observation and scenic overlooks suggest the terrain has some elevation or varied landscape worth checking out beyond a flat walking path, though families should judge trail difficulty for younger kids before heading out.

For questions about trail conditions or general park information, the number on file is (702) 341-5500. For Las Vegas families near 89144 looking for a free, flexible outdoor option with long daily hours, Cottonwood Canyon offers hiking and nature exploration for kids ages 5 and up without needing to schedule or pay for a formal activity.
