Fallon National Wildlife Refuge

Fallon National Wildlife Refuge is located on the edge of the Carson Sink in the Lahontan Valley near the town of Fallon. This area is mostly an uplands dominated by greasewood/saltbush shrublands on a gently-rolling-to-flat desert floor. There's also a system of active and stable sand dunes in this area. Limited hunting, including upland game and waterfowl, is allowed in the Fallon National Wildlife Refuge. Access is limited to open roads and you'll want high clearance 4WD, although even that won't help you if it starts raining.

Fallon National Wildlife Refuge is administered by the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service as part of the Stillwater National Wildlife Refuge Complex.
