Visitors can leave their cabin, bed and breakfast, or inn on their ATV or OHRV and hit the trails, stopping for lunch or sightseeing in towns further down the trail. Some say that they ride ATVs for the thrill and for some it is all about getting out into nature, but nearly everyone can agree that it is both fun and therapeutic. The beauty of this sport is that it can be the speed and the adventure that any individual is looking for; gentle or adventurous. Many grandparents are finding it as a way to connect with their grandchildren, married couples are finding it as a way to experience nature together, and young adults are finding it as a way to see the world. For every rider, it brings a sense of freedom and a genuine feeling of joy. There is nothing like the wind in the hair, the smell of the trees warmed by the sun, and the unexpected around the next corner. ATV riding gets people far afield from the highways and towns that dot the landscape and brings people into experiencing the landscape directly, stumbling across beautiful rivers, streams, picturesque views, and wildlife. It truly is an adventure for all ages.
