Lake Perry

Last Known Status

Open

Open daily from dawn to dusk, this area offers a wide variety of terrain that ranges from miles of narrow woods trails, steep and rugged hill climbs plus deep mud puddles. There is a separate beginners section that has a little track with small jumps, but the park is mainly geared for experienced riders due to the primarily challenging terrain that encompasses the area.

There is no fee charged to ride but there are some basic amenities that include picnic tables with shelters. Riding is permitted during daylight hours only and while overnight parking is not permitted, there are numerous campgrounds in the area that surround the nearby lake.

This area may close temporarily on short notice during wet weather conditions or special events so call first before heading out.
