Off Highway Vehicles (OHV)

There are numerous Off-Highway Vehicle (OHV) riding opportunities on the GMUG National Forests. Designated roads and trails are provided on every ranger district. Please pick up a free Motor Vehicle Use Map from the district you are interested in, which identifies those roads, trails, and areas designated for motor vehicle use.
