About this spot

Twenty Mile Beach

Twenty Mile Beach is a hidden gem located in the Walker Lake watershed of Nevada. It is a picturesque stretch of sand and pebbles that spans for almost 10 miles along the eastern shore of the lake. The beach is surrounded by towering mountains and boasts stunning views of the crystal-clear waters of the lake. One of the major reasons why visitors flock to this beach is to witness the rare species of birds that inhabit the area. The beach is home to the threatened western snowy plover and a variety of other bird species, making it a popular destination for birdwatchers and nature enthusiasts. Visitors can also enjoy a range of outdoor activities such as camping, hiking, swimming, and fishing. The beach has several picnic tables, fire pits, and restrooms, making it an ideal spot for a family outing.

One of the unique features of Twenty Mile Beach is its proximity to Walker Lake. The lake is one of the largest natural lakes in Nevada and is a popular spot for boating and fishing. The lake is also renowned for its unique ecosystem and is home to a variety of plant and animal species that are not found anywhere else in the world. Visitors can explore the lake by taking a boat tour or fishing for Lahontan cutthroat trout, which is native to the area. In addition to the lake, Twenty Mile Beach is surrounded by the gorgeous high desert landscape, which offers opportunities for hiking, stargazing, and wildlife watching. Overall, Twenty Mile Beach is a must-visit destination for anyone looking to experience the unique beauty of Nevada's natural wonders.

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.
