The Story

Tucked deep within Lake Mead National Recreation Area, Goldstrike Hot Springs is one of Southern Nevada’s most adventurous desert hikes. The route drops roughly 1,036 feet through a rugged canyon filled with **boulder scrambling, steep sections, and fixed ropes** before reaching a series of **natural hot spring pools** along the Colorado River. With about 5.5 miles round trip, this is a strenuous journey where the challenge is a major part of the experience. At the bottom, we’ll have time to soak in the hot springs, cool off near the Colorado River, and enjoy the incredible canyon scenery before beginning the demanding climb back out. The return is almost entirely uphill, so come prepared for a serious workout. But for those comfortable with scrambling and rugged terrain, Goldstrike delivers an unforgettable combination of adventure, hot springs, and dramatic desert scenery. **⚠️ STRENUOUS \| Class 2–3 Scrambling w/ Exposure** \| *\~5\.5mi \|* \~1,036ft gain **[AllTrails Route Information Here](https://www.alltrails.com/trail/us/nevada/gold-strike-hot-springs-trail)** 📸 **WHAT TO EXPECT** A challenging scramble at a RELAXED pace, stopping for frequent breaks and photos. As a photographer, I will coordinate some group photos. **💡 PRO TIP**: Start hydrating before you hit the trail. Drinking 8–16 oz of water with electrolytes about an hour beforehand can help your body stay ahead of the heat rather than trying to catch up once you're already dehydrated. **💥 WHAT IS SCRAMBLING?** Scrambling sits between hiking and climbing, involving hands-on movement over rocky terrain. \*\*Class 2 Scrambling *\- Steep hiking with some hand use for balance; minimal risk\.\-* Class 3 Scrambling \*- Hands-on climbing with route choice; a fall could cause serious injury. \*\*Exposure \*- Sections where a fall would result in a significant drop. 🚗 **WHERE TO MEET** We will meet directly at the [Goldstrike Trailhead](https://maps.app.goo.gl/Vi8StneUi58NcfbH8). **WHAT TO BRING**
