Arrow Canyon Wilderness Area

Arrow Canyon Wilderness Area encompasses nearly 27,500 acres of federally protected backcountry in Nevada, managed by the Bureau of Land Management as a designated Wilderness. The landscape is primitive and rugged, offering hikers and backpackers genuine solitude far from roads and development. All motorized and mechanized travel is prohibited—this is non-motorized backcountry requiring foot travel only.

Visitors come here to hike and backpack through wild terrain, with the understanding that you'll encounter minimal infrastructure and few maintained trails. Leave No Trace principles are essential; pack out everything you pack in, camp responsibly, and respect the wilderness character that makes this place protected. Access requires careful planning, as there are no visitor centers or developed trailheads. Water sources and seasonal conditions vary, so research and preparation before your trip are critical.
