The Ohio Valley region is a hot bead for all things outdoors. Off-roading is no exception. Every year hundreds of thousands of offroaders take their trucks, bikes, and other ATVs to the trails for a day of adventure. Lots of offroaders are fine with visiting the same trails and parks every time they go out, but others would like to find a new place to keep things interesting. Sometimes you just need to flex on a new trail with more challenges, other times it is just awesome to have a change of scenery. In an effort to aideother off-roaders in Indiana, Kentucky, and Ohio, I browsed the internet and personal knowledge to put together a full list of public off-roading sites. This list is intended to be a guide to letting enthusiasts discover parks and trails that they otherwise would not have heard of. Parks from the states OH, IN, and KY have all been included in the list.

There are many parks in Kentucky, and I have attempted to include them all. The information I have included is as up to date as I can ensure it, but I would advise you to call ahead to make sure all information is correct.
