With the spring temperatures rising in Utah, more and more people are hitting the hillside with their UTVs in tow. Regardless of the riding you like to do; there’s an adventure for you. Utah’s diverse terrain boasts scenic mountain trails, wide-open dunes, and massive red rocks for crawling. Because Utah has designated so much space as public land for recreational use, an exciting expedition isn’t far away.
Keep reading to learn about a few of our favorite places to ride UTVs in Utah.
The Paiute ATV Trail is a 275-mile loop that passes through many Central and Southern Utah cities like Richfield, Beaver, Fillmore, Marysvale, and Salina. In addition to the 275-mile trail, there are thousands of miles of side trails. The main trail takes about 25 riding hours to complete! Enjoy the beautiful scenery and mountain activities like camping, fishing, and wildlife-watching along the way.
The trails inside of Bryce National Park do not allow UTV and other motorized vehicles; however, close by the national forest are trails made just for UTVs. You can enjoy the fantastic vistas of the unique red rock formations. In addition to the excellent trails in Bryce Canyon, you can check out the trails in Red Canyon like Paunsaugunt ATV Trail, Fremont ATV Trail, and Pine Lake OHV Trail. All of which allow UTVs.
Enjoy the picturesque dune areas near St. George: Sand Hollow State Park and Coral Pink Sand Dunes State Park. While motorized vehicles are not allowed in Zion or Grand Canyon National Park, there are many other areas you’ll love riding. Be sure to check out The Arizona Strip, the Beaver Dam Mountains, and the trails in the Pine Valley Mountains.
Little Sahara boasts almost 60,000 acres of dunes, trails, and flats. While you’re there, we suggest hitting up Sand Mountain, where you can test your skills and your machine’s on rolling hills of sand. Additionally, check out White Sand Dunes, Black Mountain, and the dunes southwest of Black Mountain.
The trails in American Fork Canyon are stunning and are considered moderately difficult to maneuver. If you are seeking thrill and adventure along with breathtaking views, make sure to check out Silver Lake, Cascade Springs, Mill Hollow, Soldier Hollow, Mineral Basin, and Snake Creek. Just watch for the steep drop-offs and edges.
Honorable mentions include Lake Powell, Escalante, Vernal, and Logan. In addition to these exciting mountain trails, dunes, and rugged red rocks, Utah law allows UTVs to be driven on any public land, trail, street, or highway as long as your UTV is registered.
