This area offers about 30 miles of ATV and motorcycle trails. The trails are very dusty in the summer but are generally pretty smooth, providing a great opportunity to introduce a novice to some deep woods riding without the sticky technical stuff. The main staging area is at Five Corners, and primitive campsites are scattered throughout the area (and also at nearby Elkins Flat.) Family/OHV oriented PiPi Campground is just up the road, with 51 sites along the creek at $18/night, but you cannot access the trails directly. You must trailer out each day to ride. The whole area is mobbed on weekends, and reservations are strongly recommended for PiPi campground. (877) 444-6777
