About Wyoming

Wyoming is scale. Plains that run to the horizon, mountain ranges stacked against the sky, high desert in between, and threaded through all of it, trail systems on national forest, Bureau of Land Management ground, and designated state trails. From the Bighorn Mountains down to the open sweep of the Red Desert, ATVs, UTVs, dirt bikes, and 4x4 trucks all find their kind of country here. With this much public land, you can chase technical routes or just point the machine at a view and cruise, often without seeing another rider all day.

The trail networks spread wide. The Medicine Bow-Routt National Forest near Laramie and the Shoshone National Forest next door to Yellowstone anchor two of the biggest, mixing forest roads, single-track for dirt bikes, and wider routes built for side-by-sides. The riding runs through pine forest, across high-altitude meadows, past alpine lakes, and the locals show up regularly: deer, elk, antelope grazing just off the trail. The trade-off for all that country is remoteness. Many riding zones sit a long way from help, and mountain weather turns fast, so a plan matters here more than most places.

The state takes its trails seriously, systems are well maintained, and information for off-roaders is easy to come by. Many routes are multi-use, which means sharing gracefully with hikers, mountain bikers, and horseback riders. Land managers lean hard on the same message: stay on marked trails, tread lightly, keep this country the way you found it. Do that, and Wyoming pays out: a day loop near Cody, a multi-day push into the backcountry of the Wind River Range, and everything in between.

Trip guide

Know before you go in Wyoming

Federal permits, lotteries and timed-entry reservations in Wyoming, from Recreation.gov.

  • Timed entryTower Junction to Slough Creek Road Corridor Vehicle Day-Use Tickets

Confirm current requirements with the agency that sets them before your trip. Rules and fees change every season.

  • OHV Registration

    All off-highway vehicles (OHVs) operating on public lands or designated OHV trails in Wyoming must be registered. Wyoming issues one ORV permit for residents and non-residents alike, there is no separate non-resident decal, and no reciprocity for out-of-state permits. These decals are typically valid for a calendar year.

  • Spark Arrestor Requirement

    Every OHV operated in Wyoming must be equipped with a U.S. Forest Service-approved spark arrestor that is in good working order and meets the specified standards. This is a critical safety measure to prevent wildfires.

  • Age and Supervision

    Operators under 16 years of age are generally required to be supervised by an adult at least 18 years old. Specific age requirements and supervision rules can vary, so it is important to verify the exact regulations with the state agency or land manager for the area you plan to visit.

  • Safety Equipment

    While operating an OHV, riders are strongly encouraged to wear a helmet, eye protection, and protective clothing. Wyoming law goes further for young riders: every operator and passenger under 18 must wear an approved helmet, on trails and roads alike. Always prioritize safety gear.

01Is a permit required to ride OHVs in Wyoming?
Yes. Every OHV on public lands or designated trails in Wyoming must be registered, and residents and non-residents alike buy the same Wyoming ORV permit, that decal is your permit for the calendar year. You can buy one online or from vendors around the state.
02What kind of terrain can I expect when off-roading in Wyoming?
Nearly all of it. Sandy washes and open high desert dominate the south and central regions, while the Bighorn, Medicine Bow, and Wind River ranges deal in rocky mountain trails, forest roads, and mud. The character shifts hard from one region, and one trail, to the next.
03Are there age restrictions for OHV operators in Wyoming?
Yes. Riders under 16 typically need supervision from an adult 18 or older. For the current details, check the Wyoming State Parks, Trails, & Cultural Resources website or the land management agency for your destination before the trip, rules vary by area.
04Where can I find maps of OHV trails in Wyoming?
Start with the U.S. Forest Service and BLM district websites for official trail maps, and Wyoming State Parks, Trails, & Cultural Resources for the designated state trails. On the ground, local visitor centers and sporting goods stores usually stock regional maps too.
05Are spark arrestors required on OHVs in Wyoming?
Yes, a U.S. Forest Service-approved spark arrestor in good working condition is mandatory on every OHV in Wyoming, and enforcement is serious. It's a wildfire rule, and in a dry Wyoming summer it's not hard to see why. Check yours before you load up.
06Can I camp along OHV trails in Wyoming?
Often, yes. Public lands run by the U.S. Forest Service and BLM generally allow camping near OHV trails, subject to each area's rules. Dispersed camping regulations, fire restrictions, and permit requirements vary by location, so check with the local land office first, and camp Leave No Trace.
