Walking the Las Vegas Strip

The Strip runs about 4 miles. The resorts are so large that walking from one to the next can take 15 minutes, even when they look next door. Plan your walks in sections.

Start near the Welcome to Fabulous Las Vegas sign, then walk north past the big themed resorts. The free pedestrian bridges keep you off the street at the busy corners.

• The Bellagio fountain show, every 15–30 minutes from afternoon into the night
• The Bellagio Conservatory's seasonal flower displays
• The LINQ Promenade, an outdoor street of shops and bars at the foot of the High Roller observation wheel
• The canals and indoor 'sky' at the Venetian

• Fremont Street in downtown Las Vegas for the light canopy and older casinos
• Red Rock Canyon, a 25-minute drive west, for a scenic loop drive and hikes
• Hoover Dam, about 45 minutes southeast
