Little Egypt OHV Area

Little Egypt OHV Park is a 718-acre off-highway vehicle area in Williamson County east of Marion, Illinois, in the southern Illinois region historically known as Little Egypt, a coalfield and agricultural district bordering the Shawnee National Forest. The park features over 50 miles of trails across a broad difficulty range from beginner access roads to advanced single-track, augmented by hill climb areas, engineered mud pits, and two motocross tracks for competitive and practice riding. The trail network and motocross infrastructure make Little Egypt one of the more comprehensively equipped commercial OHV parks in the region, catering to both recreational trail riders and motocross-focused visitors. Dirt bikes, ATVs, and side-by-sides are permitted on the main trail network; helmets are required for all riders. Day-use fees apply. Camping is available with 12 electric sites and a shower house, a genuine amenity for multi-day visitors from the St. Louis and Memphis markets. The park office is staffed on weekends only; weekday visitors should have current information before arriving. Located approximately 2 miles east of Marion off US-13.
