Draconid Meteor Shower at Valley of Fire State Park

Need to Know

• This is a self-guided hike. Tealights will act as trailmarkers to guide you. 
• The West Entrance/Exit will be OPEN.
  • Our West Entrance is Closed Monday-Thursday, but OPEN Friday-Sunday. Many map apps haven't figured out the schedule and may try to route you to Exit 93.
  • If you’re coming from Vegas on I-15N, you can use Exit 75 even if your map app tells you the road is closed.
• We are ONLY doing the out-and-back trail to Fire Wave, not the full Seven Wonders Loop or any other trail.
• The trail is over loose sand and rough, rocky terrain. There is one area with stone steps.
• Since this event is occurring on the new moon, it will be DARK. (A fun comparison for those of you who’ve done a full moon hike with us before!)
• Program is weather dependent and may be cancelled without notice. Check the website and social media pages for updates before you head out.

What to Bring

• Water
• Hiking Shoes
• Flashlight.
  • A red, blue, or green setting is preferred (these colors are less disruptive to others)
• Guests may also bring chairs, blankets, and telescopes!
