Springs Preserve is a 180-acre cultural and historic site at the original springs that gave Las Vegas its name, with museums, botanical gardens and trails.

Highlights

  • Nevada State Museum on site
  • Botanical gardens and walking trails
  • Butterfly habitat
  • Exhibits on the region's water and history

About this area

Quirky museums, a chocolate factory and desert art installations — easy outings that fit around race sessions.

Fitting it into race week

Track sessions run in the evening, so daytime is free for sightseeing. Allow extra travel time near the Strip on track nights because of road closures.

Tips

  • Great for families.
  • Allow half a day.
