Logandale Trail System
The Logandale Trail System is a 150-mile designated OHV trail network in the Mojave Desert north of Las Vegas, managed by the BLM Las Vegas Field Office in the Valley of Fire corridor between Overton and Glendale in Clark County, approximately 55 miles northeast of Las Vegas on the north shore of Lake Mead. The system is the premier purpose-built trail destination in southern Nevada, developed to a standard well above the open-desert cross-country character of Nellis Dunes: marked trails with route numbers, designated staging areas, and rated loops spanning beginner to difficult give the Logandale system the structured riding experience that high-frequency visitors return for. The terrain reflects the Mojave geology at the edge of the Virgin Mountains: red Aztec sandstone outcroppings, banded limestone ridges, volcanic basalt fields, desert wash crossings, and the open bajada slopes that characterize the transition from the Basin and Range to the Colorado Plateau. Route conditions vary dramatically by season, the Mojave Desert riding season runs October through April, and summer visits after May are not recommended due to heat that regularly exceeds 105°F in the wash bottoms. Four designated trailheads distribute riders across the system; the Logandale trailhead is the primary staging area with the most trailer parking. ATVs, UTVs, dirt bikes, and 4x4 trucks are all permitted on designated trails. Nevada OHV registration is required. Primitive camping at trailheads. BLM Las Vegas (702-515-5000) manages current trail status.
