Ghost Town of Bodie

📍 Bodie, California

Once a thriving mining town with a population of nearly 10,000, Bodie fell victim to the boom-and-bust cycles of gold mining. Today, it remains a ghost town, a place where the past is palpable, as the buildings, many with their original furnishings, tell the stories of those who called Bodie home.

Bodie is a true California gold rush ghost town, frozen in time and left as it was in the 1940s. Visitors can explore over 100 structures, including shops, homes, and a saloon. It's an intriguing look at life during the gold rush.

Explorer Tip

Dress in layers as temperatures can vary; bring a camera to capture its eerie beauty. Check for seasonal access as it can close in winter.
