Last Known Status | Destroyed |
This is another one of those gone but not forgotten motocross tracks we occasionally get asked about, so we did a little research and this is what we found. Indian Dunes opened to the public back in 1970 and featured two main tracks, a peewee track, oval flat track and miles of woods trails.
The property was also popular with filmakers due to the close proximity of Los Angeles plus the wide variety of scenery and terrain (CHIPS, The A-Team, MacGyver, The Dukes of Hazard and On Any Sunday are just one of the many television shows/movies filmed at this location).
Unfortunately the park closed permanently during the winter of 1985. Both tracks and trails no longer exist due to the property being turned back to farmland.
Quail Canyon, Glen Helen, Perris Raceway and Cahuilla Creek are still open for practice. This listing will remain up for historical and informational purposes only.
