About an hour north of Las Vegas is a surprising opportunity for some beautiful lakeside camping at Upper Pahranagat Lake. All fifteen of the designated camp spots are along the lake shore with really nice lake views. Pahranagat National Wildlife Refuge also has many great day use amenities and outdoor recreation opportunities. Learn about the area at the visitor center, use the helpful viewing scopes to take advantage of the abundance of bird species in the area, and hike a few of the many beautiful trails!
