Overton WMA Access

Overton WMA Access provides public entry to approximately 17,250 acres of wildlife habitat in the lower Moapa and Virgin river valleys near Lake Mead's Overton Arm, located about 65 miles northeast of Las Vegas via I-15 and State Route 169.

The area features a free campground at the entrance, dirt road access into the WMA, and designated parking at the check station; however, vehicle access is restricted to weekdays when personnel are on duty during non-hunting season, and the area is closed entirely on waterfowl hunting days (even-numbered days during duck season).

Visitors can walk into the area 24/7 during non-hunting season and should call ahead at (702) 397-2142 to check on road conditions, as sandy silt roads become soft and sticky when wet.
