About

Anthracite Outdoor Adventure Area (AOAA) is an off-highway vehicle park located at 4100 State Route 125 in Coal Township, Pennsylvania, spanning approximately 7,500 acres of county-owned forest and reclaimed coal lands that were mined in the 1950s and later restored for recreational use. AOAA accommodates ATVs, UTVs, dirt bikes, and full-size four-wheel-drive vehicles across hundreds of miles of trails. The terrain reflects the park's anthracite coal region setting, with reclaimed mining landscapes, forested sections, and open riding areas. Formed in January 2013 to manage recreational riding on the property, AOAA offers day passes and annual memberships. On-site amenities include a pro shop, equipment rentals, a youth riding area, and guided rides for full-size vehicles. Driver training programs are available through an Off Road Consulting partnership. Waivers are required for all riders. The park has been cited as one of the top ten OHV destinations in the United States by national powersports publications.

    Nice place. Parking areas are big and staff is very nice. Lots of different trails and they are all marked clearly. First time there this past weekend and we rode about 30 miles. I was riding my raptor 700 and my friend was on a Kodiak 450. The trails we were on were VERY ROCKY. Some were relentless. On sport quads it’s a little rough. 4wd and sxs would be fine. I’ll go back but I need to find some less rocky trails.

    I love AOAA have been going here for years. For beginners and dirtbike/sports quads I highly recommend sticking to the eastern reserve as it is alot less rocky than the western reserve. They have so many different trails for every skill level of riding. Thank you to the AOAA staff for making it such an amazing place.

    Great riding for sxs. A lot of people, but so many trails you didnt really bump into too many other parties. Technical and rocky, but fun! Definitely worth it.

    I was there on a dirt bike, i highly DO NOT recommend for bikes. It is sooooooo rocky, to the point it is absolutely miserable! It is definitely geared toward jeeps, and side by sides. I took an “easy” trail (101) out the western reserve, there were a few spots you could open it up a little but then boom, rock garden! I went 6 miles, turned around and went back and loaded up! I understand this is pa, but i kinda thought for a 40$ day pass, they would do some sort of grooming, but i was wrong!
