About this area
Las Vegas is a gateway to some of America's great national parks. Several are possible as long day trips; others are best as an overnight extension to your race trip.
Fitting it into race week
Track sessions run in the evening, so daytime is free for sightseeing. This is a day trip — leave early and plan to be back in town by late afternoon if you have tickets for the evening sessions.
Tips
- A shuttle may operate in Zion Canyon; check the park website.
- November is quieter with cooler temps.
