Detailed Trail Description: Alamo Road is a trail located in the Desert National Wildlife Refuge (DNWR). This trail is mostly a dirt\sandy road that has several off-shoots to explore. The main trail goes over very soft sand, and it can be very easy to get stuck here. The 70-mile trail will take us through the desert, pinion pines, a corner of the Nellis bombing range, a dry lake and then will finally pass by sand dunes before exiting at the Pahranagat National Wildlife near Alamo. 4WD may be required at the dry lake. Any stock 4WD can do this trail but as noted above traction and momentum is required to make it over the dry lake.

 

Please note these trails are subject to change and this was written\updated the last time the trail was run. Just a small amount of rain can significantly change a trail and make it more difficult and potentially even impassable. Many trails are not frequently maintained.
