Description

Northeastern Nevada Regional Hospital is accredited by the Joint Commission and strives to provide quality healthcare to northeast Nevada residents.
Explore the Elko Area
Northeastern Nevada's largest town packs a visit of any length with a combination of epic outdoor action, artsy vibes, and hands-on history in ways few places can. Colorful murals blanket old brick buildings that house buckaroo bars, Basque food joints, art galleries, leather shops, museums, and more. Meanwhile, just a half-hour south lie the fabled Ruby Mountains, a recreational paradise for hikers, bikers, fishermen, skiers, or simply Sunday drivers seeking solace among alpine lakes, flowing streams, and peaks that scratch up to around 13,000' of elevation. If you drive down I-80 and pass Elko without a visit, you're missing out.
