      Just west of Dalton lies the largest Forest Service OHV system of trails in Georgia. These very popular motorized trails offer something for everyone, from easy to difficult, in a wooded setting. This 25 mile system closes after significant rain events to allow the trails to dry and limit resource damage, sometimes for several days. Be sure to call the Conasauga Ranger District before driving to the area.

      SUITABLE FOR - Motorbikes, all-terrain vehicles (No pick-ups or four-wheel drive vehicles allowed). Vehicles with more than 50"" width are not allowed. These trails have been designed to provide a challenging, safe ride while protecting the environment. Please stay on designated trails. Unlicensed drivers can ride on the designated trails if accompanied by a licensed adult (unlicensed drivers must stay off public roads or open Forest Service roads).
