Exploring Winnemucca!
Lessons Learned:
If You don’t explore, you’re just travelling!
An early lesson in RVing was to slow down and enjoy your surroundings.
Winnemucca has a wealth of unusual, educational and interesting things to do that you aren’t going to find just anywhere.
You can enjoy the Humboldt County Museum which houses a vast array of items ranging from the bones of a mammoth (which were found locally), an early model horseless carriage and items depicting the Roaring Twenties for a start.
Need something with a bit more outdoors to it? How about going to the Royal Peacock Opal Mine to try your hand at mining opals? Granted this is a bit of a drive, so plan on a day trip.
Or plan on visiting some of the ghost towns around our part of the world.
Need more ideas? Give us a call and let us help you decide what to see while you are here.
And, BTW, don’t forget that you don’t have to bring your RV to Winnemucca to explore everything there is to see. You can reserve one of our park models and have the best of both worlds!
Best of all? I can promise you that it won’t cost you as much as a trip to Disneyland and will be way more educational and fun!
Looking forward to seeing you!
