UNLV Mountain Club connects outdoor enthusiasts for unforgettable experiences in nature.
UNLV Mountain Club was founded in 2018 by a group of friends who believed that the outdoors are best experienced together. What started as informal weekend hikes has grown into a thriving community of over 2,000 members.
We exist to make outdoor adventure accessible, safe, and deeply communal. Our mission is simple: get more people outside, build lasting friendships, and foster a deep respect for the natural world.
Every trail we walk, every peak we summit, and every campfire we gather around strengthens our bond with nature and each other.
From casual day hikes to technical alpine climbs, we offer a wide range of outdoor experiences for every skill level.
Explore new trails with guided group hikes for all skill levels.
Rock climbing and mountaineering trips led by certified guides.
Snowshoeing, backcountry skiing, and winter camping expeditions.
Learn navigation, wilderness first aid, and outdoor cooking.
These core values guide everything we do, from planning trips to welcoming new members.
We practice and teach the seven principles of Leave No Trace. Every trip includes education on minimizing our environmental impact.
Outdoors are for everyone. We welcome people of all backgrounds, skill levels, and abilities to join our adventures.
From navigation to first aid, we offer workshops and hands-on learning opportunities to help you grow as an outdoor enthusiast.
All our trip leaders are trained in wilderness safety. We maintain strict protocols and never compromise on safety.
