Diamond Peak is a community-owned resort with breathtaking views of Lake Tahoe; miles of welcoming, uncrowded runs; easy access from the parking lot to the slopes; a dedicated Child Ski Center for the littlest skiers and snowboarders; and a great Ski & Ride Center for older skiers/riders.

We had a great experience with two children ages 6 and 9 and one adult. All had never skied downhill before. Took lessons in the morning and skied the rest of the day for 3 days. Nice choice of slopes. Very well organized parking, check in, and equipment rental.

Mount Charleston offers a pleasant surprise in the desert. A short drive away from the Las Vegas Strip and you enter a beautiful mountainous region with tall pines and fabulous hiking trails. Great place to beat the heat.

Spring Mountains Visitor Center

Reviewed By LostWagesinLasVegas - Las Vegas, United States

The visitor center has exhibits and a bookshop. The staff is friendly and can provide information on different hikes in Kyle & Lee Canyon. On the grounds are a memorial, picnic areas, and amphitheaters to name a few. There are a few trails for all skill levels you can do while you are there. The escarpment trail is a fave since it has nice views.
