Oklahoma is ATV country. There are dozens of State Parks, many with lakes around which to ride along with the inclines and meadows created by the Arbuckle Mountains, there are a number of really interesting and challenging places to take your ATV in the great State of Oklahoma.
The riding of ATVs is governed by the State Land Bureau of Oklahoma and usually only a small permit fee is collected at the time of each ride in a State managed forested area. Otherwise registration is not required of your ATV within the State of Oklahoma.
There is currently no minimum age for riding an ATV in Oklahoma but obviously children should ride with adult supervision only. Helmets and eye protection are required gear for anyone riding on State managed lands and riding your ATV on any paved roads, except when crossing to get to another ATV trail, are not permitted.
In order to legally ride your ATV in the lands managed by the Land Bureau, you must have a muffler and spark arrestor in place on your ATV, if you will be riding your ATV on any trails at night, your ATV must be equipped with working headlights.
There is no weight limit on ATVs in Oklahoma and the rules for riding are really light. The Land Management Bureau does ask that if you are an adult who is riding an ATV, that you possess a valid drivers license for the State of Oklahoma when riding your ATV on publicly owned lands.
Oklahoma is very close to being ATV heaven for its wide open spaces and lushly foliaged ATV trails, make sure you're riding legally in the State of Oklahoma and you're in for a great time
