Operated by Dig This · Las Vegas, Nevada
Located just outside the bustling Strip in Las Vegas, Nevada, Dig This offers an unmistakably different kind of outdoor adventure—one where the rough-and-tumble meets hands-on heavy machinery operation. This isn’t your average hike or ride; it’s an adrenaline-pumping, 90-minute session that puts you and your group of 4-8 in the driver’s seat of Big Dig Excavators and Bulldozers. Grapple with roaring engines as you dig trenches, create and backfill slots, and tackle demanding teeter-totter challenges over massive dirt mounds. The setting is an industrial playground of dirt and steel, tailored for thrill-seekers and team-builders alike.
The experience kicks off with a 15-minute safety and control class ensuring everyone—age 8 and up—feels confident behind the controls. What follows is an action-packed sequence where multiple operators dig simultaneously, turning a large open dirt field into an arena of skill, coordination, and fun. The course finishes with the standout “Hill Tilt-a-Whirl,” hugging the limits of these impressive machines.
What makes Dig This unique in the Las Vegas recreation scene is its fusion of raw mechanical power with group dynamics—perfect for corporate outings, family adventures, or friends seeking a rugged experience off the Strip. Nearby, the Mojave Desert’s characteristic creosote bushes and sparse desert flora set a stark backdrop, enhancing the industrial vibe. Unlike traditional outdoor adventures anchored in natural landscapes, Dig This delivers an immersive, hands-on engagement with man-made terrains and machinery.
While Las Vegas often calls to gamblers and showgoers, Dig This invites adventurers to take control in their own way, innovating the outdoor playbook with grit and horsepower. Whether you’re digging deep trenches or mastering the bulldozer’s teeter-totter, this is a rare chance to channel your inner operator in a sun-soaked Nevada setting.
Closed-toe shoes and a readiness to work as a team are all you need—no previous experience required. With a spectator area for guests and a closing awards ceremony, this activity is a standout event for groups craving an unforgettable hands-on challenge.
