As you can tell from our menu of trails, Carson City is a good place to start no matter what you'd like to see on your Nevada vacation.

You can travel on foot or on wheels, within Carson City's city limits or through the Northern Nevada countryside. You can select a trail for recreation, education or scenic relaxation. We've scouted the routes to give you distance, directions and a preview of points of interest.

Please proceed at your own pace and allow us to offer a helpful hint: some say these Nevada vacation trails are more about the journey than the destination.
