Backcountry Yurt Camping

Ward Charcoal Ovens is the only State Park in Nevada to provide a Yurt for a most unique camping experience.   A Yurt is a Mongolian style round tent with a wood lattice frame and plywood floor. The Yurt is located in a remote area of the park, accessible by ATV-OHV, mountain bike, or on foot. The views of the surrounding mountains are breath taking. Reservations are required. Contact the park directly for more information at: wardcharcoalovens@sbcglobal.net .
