State Route 318 runs from U.S. Route 93 at Crystal Springs, Nevada north to a location on U.S. Route 6 approximately 25 miles (40 km) southwest of Ely. It is often used as a shortcut between Ely and Las Vegas.
State Route 318 runs through Lincoln, Nye and White Pine Counties. Areas served by State Route 318 include Nesbitt Lake, Hiko, Sunnyside, and Lund. A particularly remote stretch of highway, State Route 318 is closed twice a year for the Nevada Open Road Challenge and Silver State Classic Challenge road races.
The racing videogame Need For Speed: Pro Street features a portion of the highway as a racing track for Speed Challenges.
