Still today, millions of visitors come to Nevada to try to get rich at its most famous city, Las Vegas. However, the state has many more exciting cities and also natural attractions to offer. Nevada is divided into five sections – Elko, Eli, Las Vegas, Tanapa, and Reno. Each area offers a great selection of entertainment and outdoor fun. While Las Vegas is the main reason many people flock to Nevada, its untouched nature is also a wonderland for outdoor enthusiasts. The north of the state is marked by wild west landscape, where cowboys are still going about their daily business. Red Rock Canyon is one of the most popular outdoor destinations in Nevada, where visitors can experience the real cowboy country. To explore the region to the fullest, rent a bike or hike various trails. The more adventurous travelers also love to engage in rock climbing here. That's why Nevada holds the annual Red Rock Rendezvous Festival at Red Rock Canyon, where thousands of rocks climbing enthusiasts from across the world meet up in spring. However, the north of Nevada is also a place of eerie occurrences. Route 375 is said to be a paranormal hotspot, where countless accounts of extraterrestrial activity have been witnessed and documented.
