Itinerary

Do you like exploring the backcountry and winding your way through the shade of towering canyon walls? Maybe you are interested in seeing ancient rock art from Mohave and Paiute tribes. Does soaking in natural hot springs sound like heaven?

Come experience the secrets of Black Canyon while hiking slot canyons.

Journey down a narrow wash, as the trail meanders through slot canyons where sandstone walls reveal ancient petroglyphs. Hike near colorful wildflowers in the springtime, down to the Colorado River, where bighorn sheep gather to drink from the cool waters. Scramble over boulders and weave your way down through the tall canyon walls toward several hot spring pools.

After a picnic lunch on the beach, relax in the natural hot springs that are known for their healing properties. Lounge in the warmth of the sun while listening to the trickling stream beside you.

Finish exploring the canyon and riverside trails before making your way back to the trailhead.

Wonderful Trip with our gifted guide Gianni to White Rock Canyon and the Hot Springs. Gianni made the trip interesting and memorable for us by his knowledge of the plants and animals of the area as well as the canyon. What a difference it was to have a guide like him to accent the natural wonders of the area. We basically had him to just my wife and myself and it was one of the best trips we've been on in the area. Great communication before the trip and at our pickup. Highly recommend it.

I like to read a few reviews before booking activities, so I'm gonna shoot you straight... First - Antonio was a freaking rockstar!! Such a fun-spirited and extremely knowledgeable guide. He has a passion for what he does. When he says he's there for anything you need, he means it! That guy deserves a raise. Lol. Second - the details... 1. when La Vacanza Travel describes it as moderately challenging, they mean it. I hike a lot (TN) but the heat in NV/AZ is unforgiving so if you're not a local, stay hydrated. 2. It is described as 6 hours. It is, but distance wise you're going 7-8 miles, just an FYI. The last mile has about a 1200 ft elevation gain on the way out, so save some energy. 3. Hot springs - (in the middle) you will walk through them and may not want wet socks for the remainder of the hike. Bring a fresh pair of socks or pack sandals in your bag, there is time and a place to swap shoes. You can do the springs barefoot but the bottom is like pea-gravel so if you're tenderfooted, opt for the sandals. The views are incredible!! Thoroughly enjoyed this trip! Hope this helps.

For someone who had some hiking experience, it was quite intense for me. I would begin with a good level of fitness as there are ropes and some climbing and sliding in between boulders. A lot of perseverance to get to the best part! The hot spring was amazing as it has some healing properties which was worth it. Antonio was my personal guide with years of experiences and he always had my back most of the time when I nearly slipped or needed an extra pull. You can tell he loves what he does! Definitely recommended!

Great challenging winter loop hike to the Arizona Hot Springs. Neil was a great guide and very patient - especially with the hike back. The hot springs were amazing and well worth the time and effort. Would definitely do this again if back in Las Vegas to take a break from the city.
