Marker Roadtrips
Expect the Unexpected
In our multi-decades' journey around the state, we've discovered countless "locals only" hideouts that have been suited for just about anybody visiting Nevada - points on and off the pavement, good for either a quick few minutes or multi-day detours and sojourns.
Each one of these trips are products of over twenty years exploring the entirety of Nevada and involve over 100 hours of work on Google Maps. So yeah, these roadtrips don't just incorporate historical markers. Consider them your one-stop for anything and everything you wanted to know about the Silver State.
NOTE: These roadtrips do not include casinos, restaurants, or businesses of any kind
unless they hold some special significance.
