⏱️ Ride Time Disclaimer
Trail times can vary depending on weather, obstacles, and recovery needs. We plan each ride to be about 2.5 hours, round trip, but please allow for extra time in case someone needs a tug or the trail throws us a curveball. An ORV Trail Permit and ORV License are required to participate. The combined cost is under $35, and permits are valid March 2026 – March 2027. Please note that weather conditions may change trail accessibility and safety. Our trail leaders and drivers will provide the latest updates on trail status throughout the event.

Small Trail Descriptions:

  • 15 miles to Dunham: More Hills
  • 11 miles to Gladwin Trails: Muddy/Sand

Driving Level:

  • These are dedicated off-road paths designed for 4x4s.
  • Trails can be narrow, rocky, or steep and often require more driver attention.
  • All Trails can accommodate stock Jeeps, daily drivers welcome.
  • Good Example: One of our Trail Leads has a gladiator sport (no lockers) on 35 inch tires and he does our most complex rides with no problem.
  • If you’re looking for extreme terrain and testing your Jeep’s limits, we recommend the Challenge Course. Dunham Lake offers more involved and challenging routes as well.
  • Please note that on every route we provide an alternate exit option that is less difficult. If you find that your Jeep cannot handle the terrain, you will always have a way out.

AVAILABLE RIDES: $15 Each
