Prairie Creek Reservoir
Wednesday, December 11, 2024
| Other Names | Felton Creek |
| Last Known Status | Open |
Located on the southern shores of Prairie Reservoir, this area has has several miles of narrow ATV trails, a gravel pit and some scattered mud puddles. At roughly 50 acres, the area can be covered in a few minutes but the trails do form some short but fast loops with some narrow single track trails for the bikes.
The terrain is not very challenging but is a good place for locals or to bring a beginner. For those looking for larger parks try Haspin Acres, Redbird SRA or Badlands Offroad Park.
Overnight parking is not permitted but camping and boat ramps can be found just a few minutes away near the north-eastern side of the reservoir.
