This new park in east Las Vegas is designed for horse owners
A new park is opening this week in east Las Vegas with amenities for local horse enthusiasts.
Arroyo Vista Park’s grand opening and ribbon-cutting will be Friday at 6 p.m., and feature live music, activities for kids and a special equestrian show with barrel racing and dancing horses, according to the city of Las Vegas.
The park, located at 4755 Harris Ave., has special equestrian amenities, including a horse-training pen, a horse arena with tie-up corrals and a separate park entrance for horse owners, the city said.
“The inclusion of amenities for horse riding to this park was a special addition because there are many nearby residents who own horses and did not have a nearby location to ride and train,” the city said in a news release.
For humans, the park has a playground, a soccer field and a walking trail. Road improvements were also made to Harris Avenue near the park and Dell Robinson Middle School for safer pedestrian crossing, the city said.
