The Black Hills has hundreds of miles of primitive roads that are ideal for ATV or ORV riding. You'll be sharing these roads with other traffic, so ride carefully. Traffic volume is usually low on these roads but increases during fall hunting season. In some portions of the forest, travel management rules prohibit off-road riding to protect soils and other natural features. In the Wyoming portion of the Black Hills National Forest, all ATVs or ORVs must be licensed (street legal) or be registered in Wyoming's ORV program before use in the forest. Check state requirements for proper licensing. Additional information is available by calling the Wyoming State Trails Program at (307) 777-7477 or going online at http://wyotrails.state.wy.us. As on all National Forest System lands, the Black Hills National Forest requires that machines with gasoline-powered engines are equipped with United States Forest Service (U.S.F.S.)-approved working mufflers and spark arrestors.
