Reno Travel Guide for backpackers


Set at the foot of the snow-capped Sierra Nevada, Reno is a small, tacky little town with one aim in mind: strip you of your cash in the casinos and slot machines, strip you of your freedom in the wedding chapels, and then restore everything to you by offering a quickie divorce in one of the multitude of courts available. So if you have cash to burn, or are one of those brilliant card-counters and can take on the gambling demon and kick his ass, then pull in for some fun times.  

DAILY BUDGET in RENO - US$50 will cover the costs of camping or hostel, if you do your some self catering, but US$100 will see you right for a room at a motel, some decent restaurant meals, and leave some change for entrance fees.

Parks – Enjoy the quiet and the natural beauty of the park in Dickerson Road, great place to take a friend.

Trukee River – Picnic beside the river running through the centre of Reno, or try some skiing, river rafting, or cycling along its banks.

Emerald Bay – take a look at this beautiful part of Lake Tahoe, picnic here or just chill out for no charge.

Donatello’s Pizzeria – 575 Keystone Ave, Grab some great pizza for hungry dudes.

Java Jungle - 246 W. 1st Street, with just about everybody in town grabbing a bite here or their morning cuppa of coffee, there must be something they are doing right.

Nugget – Virginia St., burgers and fries are served to the starving masses here at one the best cheap eats in town.
Add your favourite cheap eat!

Reno Holiday Inn/Diamonds Casino – Play slots and tables and glug back free drinks while you lose your money, you will probably be so wobbly you won’t mind.

Knuckleheads – 405 Vine St, great drink specials, live music and general happy stuff.

Pub And Sub - 715 S Virginia St, Reno, this is just about one of the best places for fun, booze, and a pizza for your friends.
