Ohio Offroading:

Indian Run Road - Located near Marietta.

Requirements: N/A

Terrain: Indian Run Road and a small township road that connects T-160 back to SR-124 and has just a very few houses at the beginning and end of it. Its not a difficult trail and can be run in 2WD under the most adverse conditions, but can be alot of 4 wheel fun if you don't take the bypasses. After following the road up a hill it levels off and has alot of side roads all of which dead end, but the ones that are not private property have some deep mud holes on them. After you reach the bottom of the hill on the other side there is a fork leading off to the right. That is a drive way, but with permission can be ran and is very slippery and has a creek running along it with some big water holes. Taking the left on the fork takes you along a deep creek and just to the left of the road it a trail leading back up the face of the hill about 1,000 feet. Its very difficult in the rain even for capable rigs. Contiuning up Indian run takes you back up a hill and if you pay close attention you will notice that the ditch the left of the road on the up hill is actually a large long rocky shelf that steps up the hill along with the road grade. Its very fun and is best run with a mid to long wheel base vehicle with some good supension travel.

Kentucky Offroading:

ORV Park of Kentucky, L.L.C. - Located near Louisville.

Requirements:  Membership

More information/ Web Site

TerrainThe 512-acre park is a tread heavy site. Tread heavy means you are not restricted to a trail or track. Dig dirt. Dislodge vegetation. Conquer  that obstacle. Blaze the way for the next user to test their equipment and their skill. Consequently, the trails at the park are ever evolving into a test of vehicle ability and driver skill. Adventuresome drivers will use the contour of the land or site features (creek, hillside, old pond, or drainage swale) to blaze new tracks.
