Offroading around St. Louis, MO?

Anyone know where there are some trails around STL?

 

I've been searching for the same thing. The only I've really come across is St. Joe state park. Google it - there's plenty of info on it. It doesn't really seem like my kind of thing though. I'd like to find somewhere with a little off roading, along with hiking and camping. I dont want to be camping 10 feet next to someone else, just to wake up and beat my '09 on trails that people are wheeling their modified jeeps, ATVs, and dirt bikes on.

 

I have heard about places that are in southern illinois...called elephant rock...and there are some places down by the ozarks...also down by float trippin country...black river..huzzah..etc....let me know if you find somewhere cool...cause Im dying to go...and I will do the same for you..

 

Definitely will do.

Anyone else from the area, feel free to chime in here.

 

hell we just go to the river bottoms here south of marshall,il..... i dont know about the camping and such but there is definately mud and sand...lol

 

i dont know if elephant rocks has anything for trucks but they do have some pretty awesome camping and hiking. if they do have trails though that would be awesome

 

http://www.fs.fed.us/r9/forests/marktwain/maps/ not very specific but a buddy of mine used to take his jeep down to mark twain alot

 

I second Mark Twain National Forest. St. Joe state park was fun too, but the last I heard trucks and Jeeps were not allowed any more.

 

Was just reading, seems like its only for ATV/UTVs and that the max allowed width for trail riding was 50".

 

Google washita off road park. When I went every body was really nice . The first thing I heard from someone is nice truck sure you want to take it down there. They have a lot of trails ill have to post pics.

 

Yeas I'd def like to see some pics. Did you go on the moderate trails? Was it challenging? There are a few others I've found around here too. Flat and nasty is one too.

 

I put the pics in my album check it out.

 

Thanks for sharing. Looks like a great time. I'll have to see about making it down there. If I do, I'll hit you up.

 

yeah looks like fun maybe when i get some new tires and convince my dad...

 

There is a private property place in Fulton MO....it is rough (more for ATV's or very seroius rigs)
Finger Lakes outside of Columbia (maybe restricted to ATV's these days?)
Also, a bit of a dirve: Southern Missouri Off Road Ranch (SMORR) in Seymore (SP) is a great place. Excellnet camping facilities. A toyota event is being held there the 25-26th of September.

 

Cool. Ill have to look into that.

Im going on vacation to KY in a few weeks, going here...
