The Daniel Boone National Forest offers an expansive network of
over 150 miles of Off-Highway Vehicle (OHV) trails, inviting
outdoor enthusiasts to experience the beauty of Kentucky’s
natural landscapes. These trails provide diverse options for all
users, including horseback riders, mountain bikers, and hikers,
making it essential for everyone to exercise caution, share the
trail, and show respect to others for a safe and enjoyable
experience.
Some trails are designated as multi-use, shared by two or more
groups, such as hikers, horseback riders, mountain bikers, and
OHV users. To ensure a positive experience for all visitors,
please follow any posted rules and regulations, practice courtesy,
and yield appropriately to other trail users.
Permit Requirements for Larger Groups:
Because this area is so popular, if you're planning an outing with
75 or more people or organizing a guided tour through a
commercial outfitter, a Special Use permit is required to minimize
environmental impact and manage trail traffic. This permit helps
maintain the natural integrity of the forest, preserving it for future
generations.
Accessibility:
It’s important to note that most trails in Daniel Boone National Forest do not meet
accessibility standards for individuals with disabilities due to the challenging natural
terrain. Please plan accordingly if accessibility is a concern.
Designated OHV Trails and Fees:
The Redbird District and White Sulphur OHV Trails are the forest’s two primary
designated OHV trail systems. Each motorized
vehicle requires a fee pass to access these trails,
which must be prominently displayed while riding.
These passes help fund trail maintenance, keeping
the routes safe and navigable for all visitors.
Additional Trails for Specialized Use:
Aside from the main OHV systems, the forest
includes several shorter trails that offer seasonal
access for hunters and other casual users. These
trails provide a closer connection to nature and
unique recreational opportunities, allowing hunters and explorers to enjoy the forest
responsibly. Motor vehicle use maps for each district identify designated trails and
access points. Note that all other areas of the forest are off-limits to OHVs to protect
sensitive ecosystems and wildlife.
Whether you’re a seasoned trail rider or new to OHV use, please check trail conditions,
obtain any necessary permits, and respect all regulations. Visit the Daniel Boone
National Forest website for a complete list of guidelines, trail maps, and updates on trail
conditions to make the most of your visit.
