Access to Kirch WMA is free—even for overnight camping. Please make sure that you’ve got an up to date fishing license, if you plan to fish.
From Las Vegas (about 175 miles to the south), take Interstate I-15 north to U.S. 93—The Great Basin Highway—then take State Route 318 north. Kirch WMA is located about 60 miles north of Hiko. Or, from Ely (about 75 miles to the south), take U.S. 6 south to State Route 318 and continue to Kirch WMA.
Free campground, well off the beaten path. Good fishing close and a nice hot spring close by. Most sites have a shade , picnic table, some have a grill and fire pit.
Beautiful place about 3 hours away from Las Vegas. Didn’t get to fish because you need a boat or kayak. Hot Springs Creek is amazing and the kids loved it. It’s very busy on the weekends. We were able to ride our quads around. The campground had lots of spots, some with shade. There’s a dump station and water stations so you can fill up your RV. There are no stores nearby and the closest gas station is 45 minutes away.
