Rockfront OHV Area

Update: March 15, 2024: Rockfront OHV Area has re-opened.
There are still a few trails in Rockfront that are not open to the public yet. These are: Paradise 17E08 (Trail 26), Big Rocks 17E10 (Trail 28), and Twin Rocks 17E12 (Trail 30). These trails are marked at Rockfront. Repairs to these trails are ongoing.
Baja and Buck Springs campgrounds are open and will be accessible after the wet weather closure for Rock Front ends. Paradise campground is inaccessible due to the closure of Paradise Trail. These campgrounds will be open barring any damage from the recent storms. Our crews will assess these campgrounds as soon as conditions permit safe access.
The Rockfront area is located in the center of the Ranger District. This 15,328-acre area provides 41 miles of 4x4 trails that vary from rock-covered canyons to ridgeline trails with outstanding vistas of the Cuyama Valley.
