Exploring the Outdoors Safely

June 23, 2020

Staying physically active is one of the best ways to keep your mind and body healthy. We are lucky that the State of Nevada has many areas for people to visit parks, trails and open spaces to relieve stress, get some fresh air, and stay active. Valley of Fire State Park is just one of many parks to provide hiking opportunities and breathtaking views.

Here are some tips to keep safe:

Visit parks near your home.
Check with the park before visiting to prepare safely and find out if bathroom facilities are open.
Stay at least 6ft. away from people you don’t live with.
Don’t visit parks if you are sick with, tested positive for COVID-19, or know you were recently exposed to COVID-19.
