About this spot

Phillipsburg Kilns

The Phillipsburg Kilns are a historic landmark located in the Diamond-Monitor Valleys watershed of Nevada. These kilns were built in the late 1800s to process charcoal for the smelting of silver and lead ore from nearby mines. The kilns were in operation until the early 1900s and were eventually abandoned. Today, the kilns are a popular attraction for visitors to the area, offering a glimpse into Nevada's mining history.

There are several good reasons to visit the Phillipsburg Kilns. For history buffs, the site offers a unique opportunity to learn about the mining operations that once dominated the area. Visitors can explore the kilns and see firsthand how charcoal was produced for the smelting process. In addition to the historical significance of the site, the Phillipsburg Kilns are located in a beautiful area of Nevada, surrounded by stunning desert landscapes and unique geological formations. Visitors can enjoy a hike or picnic while taking in the natural beauty of the area.

Responsible visitation & Leave No Trace

Know before you go
Check the operator's site (BLM, NPS, state agency, or private owner) for access rules, permits, and seasonal closures before driving out.
Stay on trail
Many points of interest sit in fragile ecosystems. Stick to marked paths to protect vegetation and prevent erosion.
Respect wildlife
Observe from a distance, never feed wildlife, and give nesting birds and denning mammals plenty of space.
Pack it in, pack it out
Take all trash, food scraps, and gear back with you. Remote sites often have no trash service.
Leave what you find
Don't take rocks, plants, fossils, or artifacts. Federal law protects cultural and natural resources on public land.
