Tibbs ORV Riding Area is small as far as ATV trails go at only 3.5-miles, but it is a fun ride if you are a more experienced ATV rider.
These are multi-use ATV trails and you will run into other traffic on these ATV trails such as hikers, mountain bikers, motorcycles and other ATV's.
The Tibbs ORV Riding Area trails follow a multi-purpose woods road that begins at the top of Grassy Mountain and ending at a gate near private land. Follow standard ATV rules and don't mess around with private land. There is a second gate about 1 mile below the trailhead that descends a steep ridge that goes down the mountainside and through some managed timber areas of pine and other hardwood.
If you are riding these ATV trails from November through February, please remember it is hunting season and hunters will add to the traffic you are likely to run into on these ATV trails. Wear bright orange so you will be very visible to the hunters in the area and you aren't mistaken for an animal while riding your ATV.
Remember these are Forest Service Managed lands and some of the same rules apply to all these type of ATV trails. You must have a noise muffler and spark arrestor installed prior to riding these ATV trails, and you must wear your DOT approved helmet all times when operating your ATV.
The Tibbs ORV Riding Area is a fantastic place to take your ATV for some steep inclines and other challenges you don't find on a lot of National Forest Managed Lands as usually they are relatively flat and ideal for newer and inexperienced ATVers but don't offer the challenge that people that have been ATVs for a while might be looking for.
