Humboldt City

Humboldt City is a ghost town in Pershing County, Nevada, preserving the scattered remnants of a former mining settlement. Its ruins sit roughly 10 miles southwest of Mill City and just 2 miles southeast of Interstate 80, making it one of the more accessible ghost towns in this part of the state.

Visitors drawn to historic sites will find the kind of quiet, open-desert atmosphere typical of Nevada's abandoned settlements. The proximity to the interstate means reaching the area requires only a short detour, though as with most ghost towns, what remains on the ground is likely modest at best.
