Highway 50's most recognizable feature are the Cave Rock tunnels.
One state park that’s always free to enter is Mormon Station State Historic Park in Genoa, which will be the site of the annual Candy Dance Arts & Crafts Fair on Saturday.
But for other Nevada state parks in Douglas County and beyond, Saturday is fee-free day in celebration of Nevada Public Lands Day.
Park fees, including entrance, camping (Saturday night) and boating, where applicable, will be waived at state parks throughout the Silver State to encourage Nevadans to discover the ecreation opportunities right in their own backyards. “
Nevada’s state parks offer a huge variety of outdoor adventures,” said State Parks Administrator Bob Mergell. “For example, visitors can travel Nevada’s backroads to discover the rustic and remote Beaver Dam State Park, experience what life was like for the pioneers at historic Fort Churchill, or relax in the shade of wild grape vines at Kershaw-Ryan State Park.”
Or they can launch a boat at Lake Tahoe or visit Spooner Lake, or Van Sickle Bi-State Park in Stateline.
