Floyd Lamb Park at Tule Springs
9200 Tule Springs Rd, Las Vegas, NV 89131
Overview
Floyd Lamb Park at Tule Springs sits at the northern edge of Las Vegas around four spring-fed ponds surrounded by cottonwoods, palms and lawns — an unusually green setting for the Mojave desert. The park contains the historic Tule Springs Ranch buildings, a small farm and wildlife area, and open desert acreage that connects toward the Tule Springs Fossil Beds National Monument.
Why Visit
It is the most park-like and most family-friendly green space in the northern valley, with ponds for fishing and picnicking, resident peacocks and a historic ranch setting. Because of its ponds and shade trees, it stays comfortable longer into the morning than open desert parks.
Amenities
- Four spring-fed ponds with fishing access
- Picnic ramadas, lawns and shade trees
- Historic Tule Springs Ranch buildings and farm area
- Walking and cycling paths through the park
Things to Do
- Picnic beside the ponds under the cottonwoods
- Fish in the stocked ponds with a Nevada license
- Walk or cycle the park paths and visit the historic ranch area
Who This Is Best For
Families, picnickers, photographers and anyone who wants shade and water rather than open desert.
Parking Information
Drive-in parking is available inside the park; a small per-vehicle entry fee applies to cars entering the park.
Seasonal Information
The park is open year-round, and its trees make it one of the few valley parks usable later in the morning during summer. Hours and the vehicle entry fee change seasonally, so confirm current details with the City of Las Vegas.
Heat & Safety
Summer heat is still severe away from the ponds. Keep children and pets out of the water, supervise fishing areas and carry water on the open desert trails.
