Hog Waller Mud Bog and ATV Park
Saturday, February 3, 2024
| Other Names | Putnam County, Palatka ATV Park |
| Last Known Status | Open |
Open during select weekends, this offroad park features about 50 miles of trails, water crossings and a large mud bog.
ATV and UTVs have their own weekend usually during the second weekend of the month while 4x4 truck mud bog events are scheduled during the fourth weekend of the month. Currently dirt bikes and three wheelers are not permitted, but the park is considering having motorcycle only weekends.
During the ATV only weekends gates usally open at about 7:30am on Saturday and during mud bog weekends gates open Friday at 2pm for campers, but check the calendar before you haul. Park amenities include restroom facilities, concession stands and ample camping area. Safety flags are mandatory for ATVs and UTVs.
* Note: Due to the high volume of phone calls the park does not answer voice mail questions so the preferred method of contact is via text message. If you are unable to send texts, email your questions to mudbog@hogwallermudbog.com
