This is a wonderful place to bring your 4-wheeler, as it is full of riding challenges. The riding areas vary in their times they are available to ride your 4-wheeler on. The southern section of this 4-wheeler trail is open all year long, but the northern section is only open from April 1 to November 1 every year depending on the weather.
It is a great place to ride your 4-wheeler, as gorgeous pine and oak trees surround the area. It has rough terrain and some steep slopes and winding turns in the trail that will make following this 4-wheeler ride a blast. This trail is nearly 23 miles in length; so make sure you and your 4-wheeler are prepared. Do a pre-ride inspection and do a complete check up, from the oil to tightening any loose bolts. The tires on an 4-wheeler get a lot of abuse; so check the air pressure and the tread.
You are likely to encounter snow in the early and late parts of the 4-wheeler riding season in the northern section of the Ripley Trails. If you haven't maneuvered your 4-wheeler in snowy conditions before, make sure an experienced 4-wheeler is along to show you the ropes, it isn't hard but it does take care.
Fort Ripley will offer up a full weekend of 4-wheeling fun for you and your favorite group of riding pals - put on your gear and check your 4-wheelers. This will be one 4-wheeler ride that you will never forget.
