An off the beaten path experience for anyone who loves ghost towns or fossils. The old 1800s ghost town of Berlin, Nevada provides the entrance to this unique camping experience. A short trail from the campground leads up to the fossil house where one can view the remains of the largest collection of Ichthyosaurs (ancient marine mammals) ever found. Most of the camping sites are pull through and there are very clean vault toilets throughout the campground. The only drawback for us is the fact that this campground does not accept reservations. After a long days drive we were lucky to find one of the last two spots, but under other circumstances it would’ve been difficult as there are no other camping areas nearby. Remember to bring cash for the self-serve pay station. $15 per night. Also, if you use a GPS to head toward Tonopah after camping here, be warned that you may end up on primitive roads for many miles. Even though the distance is longer, it would be safer to go back to the highway. Let’s just say we had that primitive road experience, and not in a four-wheel drive vehicle 😬
