| Alt Names | The Ridge Riding Club |
| Last Known Status | Open |
This popular off road park has over 35 miles marked and rated one way only trails, 15 miles of single track motorcycle trails, a motocross and pee-wee track, mud bogs, hill climbs, rocky sections, and an open field for novices. You'll find some hidden swimming holes and catch and release fishing opportunities as the trails wind through dense forest vegetation and bamboo stalks.
Hot showers, restrooms and a concession stand are among the amenities that this place offers. The park is available Friday through Sunday only, but weekday riding can be arranged for $150.00 per day. The park has recently added ATV and UTV rentals and five zip lines.
