World-renowned rock climber, Alex Honnold, fronts new Nevada travel series to encourage adventurous Aussies and Kiwis to explore the Silver State

9 February 2026: Fresh from free climbing the 1,667-foot skyscraper Taipei 101 last month, internationally acclaimed rock climber, Alex Honnold has teamed up with Travel Nevada, to create a bold new travel series.

In his first role hosting a travel program, Honnold has begun filming Get a Little Out There With Alex Honnold in partnership with Travel Nevada and Outside. The new five-part series will shift Honnold’s focus from extreme climbs to everyday adventures, curiosity, and connection. Get a Little Out There With Alex Honnold will premiere in 2026 across the Outside network.

Filmed entirely in his home state of Nevada, the series follows Honnold as he journeys throughout the Silver State in his van to take on bucket-list adventures. Combining outdoor exploration, culture, and the delightfully strange roadside attractions that dot Nevada’s highways, the show offers a timely perspective on how unplugging from daily routines and venturing into unfamiliar terrain – like stargazing among 4,500 visible stars in Great Basin National Park or mining for turquoise to make jewelry in central Nevada – can alter our view of the world and ourselves.

“Involvement in this series is awesome for me,” said Honnold. “My love for adventure matches the spirit of Nevada. Red Rock has been a huge part of my life, but Nevada still surprises me with how much there is to see and do. I’m excited to explore the hidden corners of this state and share what makes it so special.”

“Travel Nevada’s brand mantra is ‘Get a Little Out There,’ and what better person to demonstrate how to do that than Alex Honnold?” said Rafael Villanueva, Chief Executive Officer at Travel Nevada. “For many years, Alex has been a tremendous unofficial brand ambassador for Nevada, showing off the incredible climbing available in his home state. We are thrilled to partner with him and Outside to help share the spirit of Nevada and the under-the-radar spots within our state that embody it.”

“From cowboy poets and clown hotels to Basque food and turquoise mining, Nevada’s unique culture experiences are as unexpected as they are awesome,” says Sam Moulton, VP of Creative Strategy and Solutions at Outside. “The state is also way wilder than you think, home to remote climbing crags, world-class mountain biking, and everything in between making it ideal for Outside’s network. And Alex is the perfect host to show us the state through his eyes, as curious as he is up for any adventure.”

The series is executive produced by David Klimek and Jeff Moore and directed by J.J. Kelley.

Travellers to Nevada can take on Alex Honnold’s same adventurous spirit on a road trip, stopping for the colourful and quirky outdoor art at the International Car Forest along the Free-Range Art Highway, hiking and stargazing in the Great Basin National Park,  an official Dark Sky Park, located along the Great Basin Highway, or take a pit-stop for an alien encounter along the Extraterrestrial Highway.
