The designations, bestowed by WalletHub.com and Thrillist, obviously acknowledge Las Vegas’ rightful place as the Entertainment Capital of the World, but also place the spotlight on activities and attractions beyond the Strip that create an enviable quality of life. 

 

Whether you are a visitor or call Las Vegas home, here are just a few of the many fun things to do.

Adventure Is Out There! 

If you like mother nature, Las Vegas is a smorgasbord of outdoor recreation! You can hike the trails of  the 200-acre Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area just a few miles outside of Las Vegas and soak in the mesmerizing ancient petroglyphs at Sloan Canyon National Conservation Area. Be sure to experience Valley of Fire State Park – about an hour northeast of Las Vegas – but truly, a world away from the glitz of The Strip featuring excellent hiking among picturesque crooks, arches and alcoves. For winter sports like skiing and sledding, head up to Mt. Charleston only 20 minutes outside the city.

Las Vegas Pro Sports 

One of the best things about living in Las Vegas is the city’s growing professional sports scene. Since 2016 Las Vegas have built stadiums for and welcomed the NFL Las Vegas Raiders at Allegiant Stadium, NHL’s Vegas Golden Knights at T-Mobile Arena and Minor League Baseball’s Las Vegas Aviators’ move to the new Las Vegas Ballpark.  Those are in addition to The Las Vegas Aces, the city’s own WNBA pro basketball team  which plays the Michelob Ultra Arena at Mandalay Bay Resort and the Las Vegas Lights FC, professional soccer at downtown’s Cashman Field.  And there are more sports teams on the way!
