Nevadaville Road passes through the old town of Nevadaville and past the remains of around 20 mines, some of which are fairly well preserved. In addition to the ghost town and mining ruins, Nevadaville Road provides a peaceful, scenic drive and an alternate connection into the Yankee Hill network of 4x4 trails.
