Brown's Creek Trail (south of Reno, Washoe County, Nevada) consists of a 2.3-miles-long loop trail, leading up and down on both sides of Brown's Creek. The loophead is reached after a 1.2-miles uphill-hike from the trailhead at Joy Lake Road. This adds up to a total trail length of a little less than five miles.
Brown's Creek belongs to the family of parallel creeks such as Galena, Jones, Whites and Thomas Creek that run down—west-to-east—from the Mt. Rose Wilderness into the lower-elevation Galena/Reno area.
