What trail, gardens and exhibits does Deer Valley Rock Art Center Las Vegas offer?

The Deer Vally Rock Art Center is housed in 47 acres of pristine desert in the Northwest valley. The museum sports a 'hill' of basaltic boulders covered in more than 1500 ancient petroglyphs, native wildlife, an ethno botanical garden and during spring copious wildflowers. The center is also an ideal picnic spot with outdoor tables and an amphitheater.

1. The Gardens

The Neil Nelson Memorial Heritage Garden constitutes an outstanding educational experience showcasing the crops which the Native Americans are supposed to have planted several centuries ago. The ingenious farmers in those days chose such crops that were adaptable to the conditions prevalent in the desert region. Survival in the desert region called for vast skills not just in the cropping patterns but also in conserving the most precious resource in the region - water. You will gain a first hand experience of these conditions and techniques at the Gardens.

The Exhibits at the center include a wide array of rock art photographs. The Center is also currently preparing itself for another alluring exhibit titled "knowing our neighbors". This deals with the Javelinas. Though many may like to dismiss them as neighborhood nuisance, the center will focus on their distinctive characteristics in adapting to the demanding conditions of desert living.
