Gallup ATV Park
Wednesday, December 11, 2024
| Other Names | North Hogback Trail |
| Last Known Status | Open |
This offroad park opened to the public in November 2010 after ten years of hard work. The facility features a 1.2 mile long motocross track and about 10 miles of ATV trails. There is currently no fee to ride or camp but there are no amenities, so come prepared.
The park just completed its first phase and more improvements are in the works such as adding camping facilities. There are plans to add races and special events.
