Hiko Springs is a natural spring located near the towns of Palm Garden and Laughlin in southern Nevada, near the Nevada, California, and Arizona border. This is a different location from the Hiko Springs in Lincoln County, NV (which is over 200 miles to the north). A hike through the wash will take you to some spectacular scenery and some ancient Native American petroglyphs. These petroglyphs are thousands of years old and are dotted throughout this area. You can see the power of the water that runs through this wash, with the way the rock has been carved and the amount of tangled up debris.
There’s not much written about this site, but it’s close to the better known Grapevine Canyon. There doesn’t seem to be much surface water, but there’s a lot of brush, trees, cat tails, etc., so the spring still exists, supplying water underground.

Beautiful place. I have been going there for the last 47 years. Lots of litter. Went there October 20th to pick up aluminum cans. Still lots of plastic bottles and of course vandalism. Wish it could get protection from the state or federal government.
Support the Avi Kwe Ame national monument that would protect the area.
