Fallon

Tucked into Nevada’s Lahontan Valley, Fallon is a place whose character is shaped by irrigated farmland in a high-desert basin. The Carson River and the Newlands Project helped establish agriculture here, giving the town its long-used nickname, the Oasis of Nevada. Alfalfa fields and cantaloupe production remain part of the local identity, celebrated at the annual Fallon Cantaloupe Festival and Country Fair. Nearby Naval Air Station Fallon is home to the U.S. Navy’s Strike Fighter Tactics Instructor program, widely known as TOPGUN.
