Tama County OHV Park
Wednesday, December 11, 2024
| Other Names | Iowa River, Mud Creek |
| Last Known Status | Open |
This 300 acre park has about 15 miles of narrow woods trails with moderate elevation changes and a motocross track. The trails form nice long loops and winds near the scenic Iowa River. The terrain is mostly hard packed and smooth with some cool bridge crossings.
The park has a large staging area plus a campground with 10 electric and water sites and 13 primitive sites.
The park is open daily, year-round but all machines must display a current Iowa DNR sticker. Be sure to say thanks to Club S.P.O.R.T. for maintaining this property.
