Hoover Dam - tours, visitors center driving restrictions

The Hoover Dam is located (originally known as Boulder Dam), which holds the restructuring of the mighty Colorado River Lake Mead, on the Arizona - Nevada border on Interstate 93.

They went through Arizona and across the dam in the state of Nevada. As I approached I read the warning signs. And allows not all types of vehicles to cross the dam. Here is the latest information so you can plan for the future. You will be surprised to know that the RV rental trucks can cross the dam (may be inspected). It is better to be prepared to read this guide.



I drove from the Arizona side and noted that there are many pull outs and quite a few of the empty spaces. Visitors Center on the Nevada side and it's a bit more crowded there. If you want covered parking or parking spots Primo, be willing to pay. It's cash only ($ 7.00) for parking in the garage closest to the visitor center. I saw quite a few people and free parking Hardy on the Arizona side and walk down the hill and across the dam to the visitor center.

America the Beautiful, do not accept passports or Golden Eagle Golden Age / discounts for admission at the center of the Hoover Dam Tours.

Yes, you can enjoy free Dam. Park in one of the areas free parking and walk across the dam. There are a lot of great opportunities for photography and publishing interesting information along the way. Find as you walk and see another marvel of engineering and construction of a massive bridge across the river just downstream from Hoover Dam. This is to bypass the Hoover Dam.
