Throughout Michigan State owned lands there are designated trails and riding areas for atv, and orv's - St. Helen's Motorsport Area, Black Lake, Silver lake State Park and Bull Gap (Huron National Forest) and the Mounds (Genessee County Park). In Michigan unless you are at a private track or trail system, you may only ride on the State trail systems specifically designated for orvs/atvs (non licensed).
Michigan's Upper Penninsula is a little different. You can ride on all state forest roads and designated trail systems unless the Road itself is posted restricted.
The following are required by the State of Michigan laws -Safety Helmet -Eye Protection -Rider Education Certification for riders under 16 years of age - Muffler- Vehicle Title- Vehicle Registration- Maximum Sound Level cannot exceed 94dba measured at 20 inches- (Please respect the sound law. The more we take care to keep our bikes quiet the better the chances riding trails will not be closed as housing developments start to get built closer to the state trails.)
We all need to help keep our State parks and forests open to everyone. When Riding the trails, take out what you bring in. Don't leave any trash or parts behind. The deer and bear really have no use for it. When on the trails be polite to others- hikers, mountain bikers, and riders. Michigan has thousands of miles of trails for orv riders, Enjoy every Mile.
