Utah’s National Forests and BLM-administered lands are threaded with routes appropriate for ATV’s, OHV’s, and four-wheel-drive-vehicles. Check with Forest Service or BLM offices, before ATV exploring on your own. Employees of these land agencies can provide suggestions, maps, and accurate information on area conditions.
Tread Lightly. On Forest Service and BLM-administered land, off-highway use of any vehicle is permitted in designated areas only (including ATS). Check with local agency offices for maps of appropriate areas, both the U.S. Forest Service and BLM also provide brochures and maps about off-highway vehicle (OHV) opportunities.
There are also numerous ATV areas within or adjacent to state parks. Again, check to determine proper use areas.
ATV / off-highway vehicle use is not allowed in most national parks, wilderness areas, or on lake shores.
The Utah Off-Highway Vehicle Statute states that registered off-highway vehicles may be operated on public land, trails, streets, or highways that are posted by sign or designated by map or description as open to off-highway vehicle use by the controlling federal, state, county, or municipal agency. According to this law, all roads, etc. are closed to ATV’s unless posted open.
Children 8 to 16 years old are required to be certified to operate an ATV on public land.
