Ash Meadows National Wildlife Refuge, located in Amargosa Valley, NV, is a recognized wetland of international importance and one of the first in the United States designated a Ramsar site. Named after the galleries of ash trees described in expedition notes from 1893, this desert oasis is a rare and unique ecosystem that plays a crucial role in global conservation efforts.
With the largest remaining oasis in the Mojave Desert, Ash Meadows is home to relict species of desert fish dating back to the Pleistocene era. Offering diverse habitats, endangered species, and educational opportunities, the refuge provides a serene setting for visitors to unwind, reconnect with nature, and engage in wildlife observation and photography.
