OFF-HIGHWAY VEHICLE RIDING ON THE OCALA NATIONAL FOREST
The Ocala National Forest currently manages two trail systems: the Ocala North and Wandering Wiregrass OHV Trail
Systems. The Ocala National Forest is a unique and productive forest that is actively managed to restore native
environments. Two trail systems offer a variety of recreation experiences: (1) the Ocala North OHV Trail System offers a
longer experience with six distinct trail loops and (2) the Wandering Wiregrass OHV Trail offers shorter day-use riding.
Note that both trails have sections on roads that allow both licensed and unlicensed vehicles.
