The Tonopah Sand Dunes are pretty easy to find, once you make it to that area. We will be in the camping area by the big Crescent-shaped dune. Here are some directions from the sites listed below:
Directions:
From Tonopah (junction of Hwy 95 and Hwy 6):
North on Highway 95 from Tonopah towards Hawthorne for 4.6 miles. Turn right on Pole Line Rd. Go north for about 9 miles and turn right on dirt road leading to the dunes. The camping area is 2 miles in, next to the first large crescent-shaped dune.
