While Maryland does have some good off-road trails for cycles and atvs, they are not plentiful. This means that it is important to know where the good ones are, and how to go about finding them. That said, this is the first of two posts that will help you locate the best trails in the region.
According to the Maryland Department of Natural Resources, the following trails in Western Maryland are open for ORVs. There’s a ton of excellent camping in the region, and it makes a great weekend, especially before the summer heat. Although it does stay a bit cooler in the mountains in the summer. And of course, stop by Pete’s Cycle to pick up the latest gear.
