Off-road trails

Illinois off-road vehicle trails run the gamut, from twisty, single-tracks to rocky climbs to soggy mud bogs, all daring dirt bikes, quads and ATVs to stir up the dirt. 

For a unique off-road experience, head to Sahara Woods State Recreation Area, the only place in Illinois you can drive through an old mine area. Are you ready to take it off-road and enjoy the muddy side of Illinois?
