RENO, Nev. (KOLO) – Two new Adventure Centers will soon be coming soon to Nevada.
“Nevada adventure centers will be a federal state and local partnership to provide guided turnkey access to outdoor activities,” said Brenda Scolari, the Director of the State Department of Tourism and Cultural Affairs.
She tells us that there are two of these centers in the works. One in Boulder City in southern Nevada, and the other in Carson City.
Travel Nevada says they were intentionally built outside of Reno and Las Vegas.
“Overall, we want Nevada residents and visitors to understand what is available outside of Vegas and Reno,” Scolari said.
The centers were made possible due to the state receiving a highly competitive grant.
The combined cost of both projects is just over $6 million and will be built on existing state-owned parcels of land.
“I think the strength of the concept is what won us the grant,” Scolari added. “We hope they can be replicated elsewhere in the state and create revenue and resources for smaller communities in Nevada.”
The design of the center in Boulder City is being inspired by city’s connection to Lake Mead, and the one in Carson City will be part of the Nevada State Railroad Museum campus.
And Scolari says once they are up and running day trips will be what people can expect.
Construction is set to begin next year, and they are scheduled to be up and running early in 2026.
