Santa Rosa-Paradise Peak Wilderness, Protected wilderness area in northern Nevada, United States.
The Santa Rosa-Paradise Peak Wilderness encompasses 75,000 acres of mountain terrain with elevations ranging from 5,000 to 10,000 feet within Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forest.
Native American tribes of Northern Paiute utilized this land for hunting and gathering activities before European settlement, followed by mining operations in the late 1800s.
The wilderness designation reflects American conservation values, establishing protected spaces where natural processes continue without human interference.
Multiple trails provide access to the wilderness, including the Summit Trail across the northern section and Buffalo Canyon Trail, which extends 4.5 miles to the range summit.
The area contains cold mountain streams that support populations of Lahontan cutthroat trout, a threatened species native to Nevada waters.
