Route Description
The southern terminus of State Route 376 is located about 5 miles (8.0 km) east of Tonopah on US 6 in western Nye County. From there, the highway heads north through the Ralston Valley for about 13 miles (21 km). The route then curves westward around some mountains to enter the southern end of the Big Smoky Valley. SR 376 continues northeastward through the center of the valley, providing access to Manhattan (via State Route 377) and Round Mountain.
Passing the Round Mountain turnoff, SR 376 shifts to the west edge of Big Smoky Valley. The highway passes east of the Arc Dome, the highest point of the Toiyabe Range. Following the base of the Toiyabe mountains, the route continues northward for several miles to enter Lander County near the community of Kingston. 16 miles (26 km) north of Kingston, State Route 376 reaches its northern terminus at a junction with US 50 about 12 miles (19 km) southeast of Austin.
