Eldorado Canyon
Eldorado Canyon is located just 45 minutes from the Las Vegas Strip. Come on down and step right into the
pages of history. There are old mines, original footings from buildings of the 1800's, breathtaking cactus gardens,
natural springs, views of the Colorado River, and more! Here you can take a Guided ATV Tour, Horseback
Riding, Kayaking, or Gold Mine Tour.
ATV Tours
Experience the best ATV Tour Las Vegas has to offer. Ride your ATV on an Off Road excursion, up and around
trails that were meant for big horn sheep and mule driven ore wagons. Big open sky, the Colorado river and 3
dimensional views of the mountain ranges leading to the Grand Canyon are an awesome site to take in from the
top of our trail head. ATVs are late model, 4 Wheel drive, fully automatic, and a blast to operate! After a Safety
and Operations Orientation, both beginners and experienced riders will be ready to hit the trail with our
Professional Guides.
We’ll be riding on extreme mountain terrain, surrounded by forests of cholla cactus, with towering, multicolored
rock formations as the backdrop for this incredibly scenic tour.
Step right into the pages of history, with a walking tour of the Techaticcup mine. We will venture deep into this
rumored haunted gold mine and visit 3 different shafts, one of which drops down to over 900 feet. Learn how the
hardiest of men labored feverishly looking for GOLD! Chiseling their way through the mountainside inch-by-inch,
with the most primitive of tools and working by candlelight.
The lunch/dinner stop at our Old West Town will take you back in time, featuring foundations from one of the
original Mining Camps of the 1800’s. Enjoy a delicious picnic under our covered pavilion, listening to the sound of
a natural spring that furnishes precious water to the desert wildlife in the area. This natural spring attracts big
horn sheep, the kit fox and a variety of desert wildlife, so look closely as not to miss the creatures that blend into
the natural landscape of the desert.
