| Bonnie Springs
Ranch Old Nevada was originally built in 1843 as a stop over
for the wagon trains traveling the Old Spanish Trail to California.
Since the 1950s the ranch has been used as a tourist attraction.
Bonnie Springs is a popular day trip from Las Vegas with visitors
wishing an escape from the busy casinos. Activities at the
ranch include horseback riding, the petting zoo and dinning
at the old west dinner house.
The western town hold shows throughout
the day and range between 30 to 45 minutes long. Additional
performances are held on the weekends. The shows re-enact
gunfights, hangings and bank robberies. Entrance fee is a
little on the expensive side for what you ( $20.00 per car
load for up to six people) but when you consider how much
you are saving by not being at a casino it's not too bad.
Bonnie Springs is an interesting place to visit while you
are in the Las Vegas region of Nevada. |
