Fitness is a way of life in Summerlin

For residents of Summerlin, there are many opportunities to stay active, thanks to the community’s abundant recreational amenities.

Known for promoting healthy living created through amenities that encourage movement and activity, Summerlin offers more than 200 miles of its award-winning trail system; 300-plus parks of all sizes that are home to tennis and pickleball courts, basketball courts, baseball and softball fields and playgrounds; five community swimming pools; 10 public and private golf courses; and adjacency to Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area, a world-class rock-climbing and hiking destination that is also one of the valley’s most popular cycling spots.

Some of Summerlin’s many special events are geared toward healthy activities, including Tour de Summerlin — an annual cycling event that offers 20-, 40-, and 80-mile courses through the scenic community and nearby National Conservation Area. This year, Tour de Summerlin is scheduled for April 26. For more information or to register, visit Summerlin.com.

Downtown Summerlin, the community’s vibrant and walkable urban core offering shopping, dining, sports, entertainment, office buildings and luxury residential apartments, is home to multiple fitness facilities. They include Lifetime Athletic, a world-class athletic club, Pure Barre, TruFusion and Dance Dynamics.

Under development is Mark Wahlberg’s MUNICIPAL GYM powered by EoS Fitness that will open by 2026. During good weather, Downtown Summerlin is also host to Fitness on the Lawn, drawing fitness enthusiasts of all ages, and Fit4Mom Las Vegas offers outdoor classes at Downtown Summerlin each week.

New to Downtown Summerlin this year is Roller Rink presented by The Summer Camp at The Meadows School. This outdoor, retro-inspired roller-skating rink will open on Feb. 14 and operate through early May 2025. Operating hours, skate rental fees and reservations available at Summerlin.com.

The Summerlin Trail system, comprising six types of trails, ranks in community surveys as Summerlin’s most popular amenity. Spanning more than 200 miles, the Summerlin Trail system connects neighborhoods and villages and provides children with safe passageways to school. Best of all, it provides miles of uninterrupted scenery for jogging, walking, strolling and cycling, encouraging residents to get outside and move.

While four of the community’s outdoor community pools are closed during the winter, the Indoor Aquatic Center at Faiss Park is open year-round.

The Arbors Tennis & Play Park offers year-round tennis lessons and leagues. Given the number of parks with ballfields in Summerlin, youth and adult baseball, softball and T-ball leagues are abundant in the community.

Finally, golf is yet another sport for which Summerlin is known. Summerlin is home to Nevada’s only two Tournament Players Club courses: TPC Summerlin and TPC Las Vegas.

Other popular courses include the Jack Nicklaus-designed Bear’s Best in The Ridges and two courses at Red Rock Country Club designed by Arnold Palmer. With a variety of courses for all skill levels, there is a golf course in Summerlin for just about everyone.
