If you're looking for an ATV trail with a spectacular view, make the The Green Mountain trail your next ride. It lies Northeast of Prineville in the Ochoco National Forest.
This trail is only 8.5 miles long and it winds through open ridge tops with outstanding views and passes through scenic old growth of ponderosa pine stands. If you're lucky enough to be riding in the spring, expect to see a lot of wild flowers.
If your ATV is less than 50" in width you can ride the Green Mountain trail. Please note that the The Green Mountain Trail is not an OHV park. Off-highway vehicles are allowed on the designated trail. Additionally, they can ride roads with vertical route numbers, skid trails, cow trails and any area not specifically closed to OHV's.
They do ask that you follow the standards put forth by Treadlightly and stay on the existing and well marked travel routes. These are multi-use trails and are open to horses, mountain bikes, and other ATVers, so please watch for others and ride sharefully and carefully.
You can get the latest ATV trail map at the ranger's office and it's always a good idea to have a current map, even on a short ATV trail like this one. Please note that there are no camping areas located immediately adjacent to the Green Mountain trail. There are many dispersed sites in the vicinity and camping is allowed at any of them. The Wildcat Campground is the closest developed campground with water and toilets and there is an $8.00 fee per night. There is no garbage collection at any point on this ATV trail system so if you bring it in, pack it out.
Green Mountain will have a lot of twists and turns and a great amount of scenic beauty to offer up for your next ATV ride no matter what time of year you ride.
