Learn More About Elko

Nestled next to the Humboldt National Forest, Elko—named one of the Top True Western Towns in the United States—is a growing suburban space filled with families and young professionals.

If you need a refreshment, the city has restaurants, saloons, and coffee shops aplenty. If you want to get out in nature, there’s easy access to the Wild Horse Reservoir, the Ruby Mountains, and more than 20 alpine lakes.

Closer to town, there’s the California Trail Historic Interpretive Center, the Western Folklife Center, and the Cowboy Arts & Gear Museum.

If it’s a nice day, check out Elko Mural Tour, which depicts cowboy cultures through more than 60 murals within a one-square-mile piece of downtown Elko.
