Off Highway Vehicles (OHV)

The Coronado offers trail and road riding opportunities.

Tread Lightly!

Hikers, bicyclists, equestrians, and off-highway vehicle recreationists all have certain things in common, such as a love of the outdoors and the use of a motor vehicle to get where they are going. Knowing how to tread lightly with your vehicle is the responsibility of all vehicle operators.

Protect Your Privilege. Prevent OHV Site Closures. Abuse it, Lose it. 
Excessive complaints about OHV recreation uses such as dust, noise, and speed can force OHV site closures. OHV sites are closed partly because of environmental damage from OHV use such as violation of clean air rules due to excessive dust from vehicles. Help prevent OHV site closures. Protect your privilege.

Nature Rules: Stay on roads and trails.”

  • Signs are important for travel and your safety. Do not destroy signs. It is against the law.
  • Avoid creating dust. Slow down.
  • Keep out of closed areas. Do not trespass.
  • Keep your OHV quiet. More complaints = more closures.

  • Fences keep livestock confined – Do not cut fences.
  • Do not drive on a route smaller than the width of your vehicle.
  • Pack it in, pack it out. Do not litter.
