Surrounded by the towering Ruby Mountains, the town of Elko is one of the best true Western towns in Nevada, and some would say even the United States. It sits at an altitude of more than 5000 feet, with natural wonders such as the glacier-carved Lamoille Canyon and the mountains themselves, which are great for rock climbing, mountain biking, hunting, and backpacking.

The town really began in 1869 as a railroad site town, becoming the home to the workers and all their families. Today, Elko, NV is where real cowboys work and play, and hosts a number of events throughout the year. Explore the town’s roots in mining, ranching and native culture with a stop in one of the many museums. Although there are no big cities nearby, the towns of Winnemucca, West Wendover, and Carlin collectively provide all the amenities you may need during your outdoor adventure to the area.
