Voting Home / Umatilla National Forest
Nominated for: BEST Four Wheeling
National Forests are a popular place to take off-road vehicles and four-wheel drives. Driving rugged terrain is a challenge. Another challenge that OHV enthusiasts face is a responsibility to “tread lightly” and protect the environment that they use. There are a few simple rules recreationists need to be aware of and some guidelines that will help make their trip more safe and enjoyable.
To ride in the National Forest, your vehicle is required to be trail legal. The following equipment is required: a State Parks OHV tag, a working muffler, brakes and Forest Service approved spark arrestors. Headlights and taillights are required before and after sunset. Three and four wheelers are not allowed on dirtbike trails because they are too wide and cause damage to vegetation along the edges.
Many Forest Service offices have a variety of maps that will show roads, trails, topography and closures. Become familiar with the area you are riding in and the regulations that govern it. If an area is closed to vehicles, it is with reason, so travel only where vehicles are permitted.
