Virginia City

Virginia City, Nevada

Mountains: View from turnout on Hwy 341 on the way up the mountain to Virginia City.

Virginia City is an old mining town that is located about 25 miles Southeast of Reno, Nevada. After a quick ride down Highway 395 South you reach the junction of Highway 341 East. Highway 341 is in very good condition and winds up over the mountain to Virginia City at about 6200 elevation. The road is twisty but should be a nice ride for riders of all skill levels. Police patrol the town so watch your speed and noise levels.
