Closed for the season.

Come and drive your all-terrain vehicle or dirt bike in the Off Road Vehicle park. Hours vary as the course is a shared training area, and therefore may not be available at certain times. All scheduling for the park will now be done through iSportsman. Questions? Email: usarmy.jblm.id-readiness.list.dpw-isportsman@army.mil.

The park is located about a mile out southside of Scouts Out gate on 2nd Division Range Rd. The gravel parking lot on the left is a staging area for the park. The ORV park can be accessed through East Gate Rd. From East Gate, make the first right and follow the road to a fork. Stay right and continue until the staging area comes up on right.
