Exploring Nelson Ghost Town
Office/Remote Location
Nelson, NV
Description
Step into the Wild West at Nelson Ghost Town, an abandoned gold mine located just 45 minutes from Las Vegas. It's been featured in tons of music videos, films and video games, though it's not just a spot for pop culture fans. Join a guided tour and check out the restored houses, cool historical artifacts and a collection of vintage cars. You can drive a few miles to the east to see Nelson’s Landing, where a short trail downhill leads to a lookout with views of the Colorado River.
