As a 30-something-year Nevada resident and a writer for Nevada Magazine & Visitor Guide, I’ve spent a lot of time on the road.
Rainbow Canyon
Thrillist: Rainbow Canyon among best fall foliage stops in Nevada
“This area of Southeastern Nevada is home to the largest collection of Nevada State Parks, a dense cluster of state treasures all within easy driving distance of each other. Two of those parks offer unique settings to enjoy some fall colors and are located on either side of the 21-mile Rainbow Canyon Scenic Drive, which follows the mainline of the Union Pacific Railroad (stop by the Spanish Mission-style railroad depot built in 1905 before leaving Caliente).”
