Nevada's "other" gambling and resort town, Reno is located in the western part of the state near the California border. What the city lacks in glitz or reputation it more than makes up for in attractions and amenities. There are first-rate hotels, golf courses and casinos to rival its southern counterpart and, also like Las Vegas, Reno has become a popular destination for families. Galena Creek Park offers nature trails that even young children can navigate, plus organized educational events for families.

This is a beautiful hike, light to moderate difficulty (on my scale anyway). Just shy of 6 miles round trip, some topography, generally uphill on the way out and downhill on the way back, but nothing too tough. 3 creek crossings (a metal grate bridge and 2 large logs) don’t pose a problem. Mostly sunny, but some shady areas closer to the waterfall at the top of the creek. Didn’t really see any critters along the way, which was kind of a surprise. Free public parking, restrooms (clean) and drinking fountain at the trailhead. Bring water and snacks with you. Dogs are welcome, but there are a few all-rock stretches that may be tough on tender paws. Enjoy!

Exploring Reno on a spring day, we headed to Bartley Ranch Park. There are great views from an overlook (take trail to left of restrooms) and easy walking trails on the flat around horse corrals, historic buildings, and extensive collections of antique farming equipment. Dog (on leash) friendly and of course horse friendly. Great way to spend an afternoon
