There is no denying that the Mojave Desert is hauntingly beautiful in its own right, but after a few days of exploring the desert scenery, you may be ready to swop the red-sand stone formations for a lush green park. The Floyd Lamb Park is just 20 miles from the Las Vegas Strip and sprawls out around Tule Springs, which were once an important oasis watering hole for Indian tribes.

Today, you can expect to find a large grassy park with four stocked ponds where you can fish, scenic paths to meander along, and picnic and barbecue areas. While you are there, you can visit Tule Springs Ranch to see some brilliant fossil remains of extinct mammoths, bison, and more, dating back to the Pleistocene era. See the Map
