How to get to Valley of Fire State Park
Valley of Fire sits off Interstate 15 about 50 miles (roughly an hour) northeast of Las Vegas, with access via Exit 75 (Valley of Fire Highway) or from the east through Lake Mead National Recreation Area on Northshore Road. The nearest airport for fly-and-rent trips is Harry Reid International Airport in Las Vegas. Roads into the park are paved and RV-friendly, with no low tunnels, but expect long, steady grades, exposed desert stretches with strong crosswinds, and limited services once you leave I-15. Fuel up, top off water, and check tire pressure in Las Vegas or Moapa before entering the park, as there are no gas stations or grocery stores inside.
