When you land
Things to do in Ely
Ely is a historic copper-mining town in eastern Nevada and the seat of White Pine County, where the Nevada Northern Railway still runs restored steam trains from its preserved early-1900s rail yard. Mining remains important to the local economy, along with ranching, government and tourism, and the town’s remote location along U.S. 50, known as the Loneliest Road in America, adds to its character. The surrounding valleys and ranges are among the least crowded landscapes in the lower 48, which is exactly what draws many visitors.
