Learn about the captivating history of the railroad that was essential to the construction of the Hoover Dam.We hike until we're about under the Lake Mead Overlook where we'll get a view that other Hoover Dam tours don't bring you to and with much less people (chances are it will just be us there).This trail is relatively flat and is about a 4.5 mile hike.
