Caliente

Built around a Union Pacific Railroad division point, Caliente developed into a small city in southeastern Nevada. It lies in Meadow Valley beside Meadow Valley Wash, amid the dry Basin and Range country of Lincoln County. The town's name, Spanish for “hot,” recalls the local hot springs. Rail operations shaped its early economy, and the 1923 Mission Revival railroad depot, a landmark of that era, now serves as City Hall. Nearby Kershaw-Ryan State Park preserves a spring-fed oasis in the valley, with trails and picnic areas beneath canyon walls. Discover other points of interest through webcams located across Nevada.
