Under Construction
The City of Henderson has been awarded more than $200 million in funding through the Southern Nevada Public Lands Management Act (SNPLMA) for the development of more than 30 projects including parks, trails and natural areas. Visit Henderson Parks and Trails for more information on these projects and Bureau of Land Management, Las Vegas office for more information about the SNPLMA.

Reserve a Park
The picnic areas (with a few exceptions) are available to all citizens on a first-come, first-served basis unless the area has been reserved through our reservation system. Individuals or groups may pay a user fee to reserve a specific picnic area. All reservations must be made at least two weeks in advance of the event. Henderson-based companies and residents may reserve picnic areas up to 180 days prior to the event. Those who wish to use the park are not required to pay a user fee. However, should a party reserve that particular park area, those who have not paid the park-user fee will have to relocate. To view available parks, download the Parks Map and Matrix* or look in the back of the Henderson Happenings. Read more...
