Come OHV riding through Nevada’s “Cowboy Corridor”! Location Lander County Length 183 miles (Network) Town Battle Mountain Surface Dirt Pets Permitted Fees No Wilderness Study Area China Mountain Wilderness Study Area Description Battle Mountain sits right off I-80 between Winnemucca and Elko in Nevada’s historic “Cowboy Corridor.” This retro town offers thousands of acres of BLM land perfect for OHV exploration. Ride through sagebrush flats, canyons, and steep technical climbs to reach stunning backcountry vistas. Trails provide access to Antler Peak, Long Peak, and North Peak. Be sure to visit the Willow Creek ponds and reservoirs on the south end of Copper Basin. The area also features rich cultural history — from Northern Paiute and Shoshone artifacts to early fur trappers and 1860s copper miners whose operations continue today. Battle Mountain also hosts the annual World Human Powered Speed Challenge. Nearby Copper Basin offers excellent non-motorized mountain biking trails (see separate map for details). The Shoshone OHV area is another fun nearby option.
