Pioneer Territory

Nevada’s Pioneer Territory just may be the last place where visitors can find the true spirit of the Old West. The Pioneer Territory covers South-Central Nevada, a part of the state filled with historic mining towns, vast scenic vistas, and geologic wonderlands. Its natural attractions range from Death Valley National Park to Devil’s Hole, home of the endangered pupfish.

Perhaps no part of Nevada offers as many examples of the peculiar boom-and-bust nature of 19th- and early 20th-century mining camps as does the Pioneer Territory. Dozens of half-forgotten communities with names like Gold Point, Belmont, Manhattan and Hot Creek dot the landscape. Sometimes, only a handful of abandoned buildings and foundations mark the places where a mining metropolis once thrived. But the ghosts are worth visiting.
