The North Las Vegas Strip scenic route follows Las Vegas Boulevard north through the upper end of the famous resort corridor and into the historic downtown district of Las Vegas, Nevada. This stretch captures a different character than the southern Strip, blending modern mega-resorts with the vintage charm of Fremont Street and the original casino district that launched Las Vegas as an entertainment capital.

Heading north, the route passes the Stratosphere Tower, now known as The STRAT, which offers panoramic views from over 1,100 feet above the desert floor. Beyond the main resort cluster, the boulevard transitions through the revitalized Arts District, where galleries, breweries, and murals have transformed former industrial spaces into a creative hub.

The route culminates at the Fremont Street Experience, a five-block pedestrian mall covered by a massive LED canopy that hosts nightly light shows. The surrounding blocks contain some of Las Vegas’s oldest operating casinos, including the Golden Nugget and Binion’s, offering a glimpse into the city’s mid-century origins. Container Park, the Mob Museum, and the Neon Museum sit within easy reach of this corridor.

Evening drives showcase the route at its most vibrant, with neon signage and LED displays creating a continuous light show along the boulevard. The route is accessible year-round and pairs well with the South Las Vegas Strip for a complete north-to-south traverse of the city’s most famous road.
