Last Known Status | Open |
This area features several miles of easy ATV trails that wind by open meadows and through a mixed woods forest. There are scattered mud puddles and light to moderate elevation changes, perfect for beginners or for a family ride.
There is a large staging area with plenty of room for parking. Visitors must call first before heading out since there is currently no regular schedule. The park also occasionally hosts various outdoor concerts throughout the season. Call before you haul.
