Other Names | Hell Hole |
Last Known Status | Open |
This popular off-road park has a little of everything that ranges from rugged Jeep and single track motorcycle trails, rock gardens, a drag strip plus several challenging mud pits (one is notoriously called "Hell Hole", and to date no one has made it through!).
While the park is very popular with the 4x4 crowd, there is a motocross track and a designated harescramble trail set aside for dirt bikes.
Monthly mud bogs and ATV events are usually hosted, which usually draws a big crowd.
The park is open daily, year-round but visitors are asked to call in advance prior to arrival.
