Mount Moriah Wilderness Area

Mount Moriah Wilderness Area is a federally protected 8,790-acre wilderness in Nevada managed by the Bureau of Land Management. This primitive backcountry offers solitude and untracked exploration in a non-motorized environment where hiking and backpacking are the primary ways to experience the landscape.

As a designated Wilderness Area, Mount Moriah operates under strict protection: no roads, motorized vehicles, or mechanized travel are permitted. Visitors must practice Leave No Trace principles and be entirely self-sufficient. Access requires foot travel only, and the landscape remains largely roadless and wild. This is a place for those seeking genuine backcountry immersion rather than developed recreation.
