Historic Railroad Trail - Lake Mead National Recreation Area

The historic railroad trail was a railroad right of way originally used to haul equipment and materials for the construction of Hoover Dam. The railroad was decommissioned in 1961 after the last power generator was installed in the dam. The trail is 3.7 miles one way and goes from the trailhead near the Lake Mead NRA Alan Bible Vistor Center to the Hoover Dam vistor parking structure.

My wife and I hiked the trail in November, 2010... It was great! I love this part of the country.
