lake lahontan, Nevada

Hike-in access defines the experience at Lake Lahontan, a dispersed camping area outside Silver Springs, Nevada. No developed facilities are in place here, meaning campers carry in everything they need, including water. Several developed alternatives within the Lahontan State Recreation Area sit a few miles away, including 9th Street Campground — Lahontan State Recreation Area and Silver Springs Beach Campground - Lahontan State Recreation Area, both offering established sites with more infrastructure. Plan to arrive self-sufficient, and check current conditions with Nevada State Parks before heading out.
