About this spot

Alcohol Wall

The Alcohol Wall is a man-made structure in the Las Vegas Wash watershed of Nevada that is covered in empty beer and liquor bottles. The wall was built in the 1960s by locals who would toss their empty bottles over the side of the road, eventually creating a wall that stands over 30 feet tall and 100 feet wide. Although the wall was originally viewed as an eyesore, it has become a popular attraction for tourists and locals alike. Visitors can hike to the top of the wall for a breathtaking view of the surrounding desert landscape. The colorful bottles also make for unique photo opportunities.

While the Alcohol Wall may not be for everyone, it is a one-of-a-kind attraction that offers a glimpse into the history and culture of the Las Vegas area. In addition to the wall itself, visitors can explore the surrounding area and take part in activities such as hiking, birdwatching, and photography. The Las Vegas Wash watershed is also home to a variety of wildlife, including desert bighorn sheep, coyotes, and bobcats. Overall, the Alcohol Wall is a must-see destination for anyone visiting the Las Vegas area who is looking for a unique and offbeat experience.

Responsible visitation & Leave No Trace

Know before you go
Check the operator's site (BLM, NPS, state agency, or private owner) for access rules, permits, and seasonal closures before driving out.
Stay on trail
Many points of interest sit in fragile ecosystems. Stick to marked paths to protect vegetation and prevent erosion.
Respect wildlife
Observe from a distance, never feed wildlife, and give nesting birds and denning mammals plenty of space.
Pack it in, pack it out
Take all trash, food scraps, and gear back with you. Remote sites often have no trash service.
Leave what you find
Don't take rocks, plants, fossils, or artifacts. Federal law protects cultural and natural resources on public land.
