리옹 카운티 최고의 워킹 & 하이킹 경로

This area is named after a 150+ year old mystery. Mathias Fege and Jacob Schroeder, ran a small farm & orchard here in the 1860s, but one day the pair were found shot dead. We'll never know what happened to the men, but there is more to see here than an old crime scene. The trail itself climbs the hillside and has great views across Washoe Lake to the Sierra Nevada mountains on the opposite side of the valley.

This viewpoint is accessed via a short, but steep trail. You'll be sweating and breathing deep when your reach the overlook but the views across Washoe Valley to the Sierra Nevada mountains are amazing. Jogging up here is a quick out and back, but if you have time you can turn it in to a longer loop run.

To reach 'Centennial Loop', you need to hike along 'Rocky Trail'. The two trails are very similar in terms of the rocky terrain and the great views. Even though the trail doesn't include any crazy inclines, be prepared for a lot of ups and downs.

As you can imagine, 'Rocky Trail' includes multiple sections with a lot of rocks along the way. But there is more to the trail, like outstanding views into the distance and wildlife (wild horses do live here). Combined with Centennial Loop, you don't have to hike out and back.

While the northern part of Prison Hill Recreation Area is for hikers and bikers only, the southern part can be used by motorized vehicles as well. Once you're inside the area, you will have multiple options on where to go and no matter how you decide, you will have a great time with amazing views of the Carson Range, Carson City and much more.
