Nevada Highway 50

Description: Highway 50 in Nevada runs from Stateline in the west to just past Baker in the east. It is 408mi long. The section through Nevada was named in 1986 by Life magazine, because of its sparse population, as loniest road in america .

Our rating: If you take the settlement as a basis, this is probably really a very lonely road. Consequently, we had not expected very much from the route. However, we were quite surprised, because the landscape was very varied and there were also always small highlights to look at. We really liked the ride in September 2019.
