The Ultimate Mount Rose Drive Guide

Mount Rose Highway

This legendary road is the Northern Nevada drive. If you love being behind the wheel and you haven’t taken this route yet… seriously, what are you doing? This is one of those roads you have to see to believe.

Mount Rose is packed with banked corners, tight switchbacks, and long flowing sections that make every mile engaging. Whether you’re here for the views or the rhythm of the road, it’ll keep you smiling the whole way up. Many locals consider it Nevada’s closest thing to a true mountain touge — and honestly, it lives up to that reputation.

Make sure to check out the full route details and tips on the technical writeup about the route. Over on that page you will find parking info, Google Earth KMZ/KML data, distance, number of corners, etc...
