The Ridge Outdoor Resort

In their search for off-road trails in Birmingham, AL, many are led to The Ridge Outdoor Resort. Located a short 30-minute drive from Birmingham, the Ridge offers over 30 miles of trails to traverse, open to lifted trucks, ATVs, dirtbikes, and more. All trails are conveniently labeled as beginner, intermediate, or advanced, ensuring you don’t accidentally head to an area you’re not yet ready to take on. While you’re crawling over rocks and kicking up mud, you’ll enjoy breathtaking views of lush forests, expansive fields, and dramatic rock formations.

Gray Rock ORV Park

Hop on I-65 and head 20 minutes north to get to Gray Rock ORV Park in Gardendale, AL. Designed for avid off-road adventurers with fully tricked out trucks, Gray Rock is known for rocky terrain and steep hills that are a thrill to crawl, but not quite designed for beginners. Prefer to be a spectator? Gray Rock hosts fun competitions from time to time – if you’re up to it, maybe you’d even like to enter yourself!

Stony Lonesome OHV Park

Stony Lonesome OHV Park requires a bit farther of a drive, located about 50 minutes north of Birmingham in Bremen, AL. Even if you’re just planning a day trip, we think Stony Lonesome is worth the trek. This off-road park in Alabama features over 1,450 acres of public land built exclusively for ATVs, rock crawlers, dirt bikes, lifted vehicles, and more. Whether you want to navigate rocks, mud, or hills, you’ll find it all at Stony Lonesome. Thanks to their on-site cabins, RV sites, and tent campsites, you could easily spend a long weekend here for as little as $10 per night, depending on your choice of sleeping quarters.

Morris Mountain ORV Park

Morris Mountain ORV Park is another off-road park that requires a bit of a drive, located an hour and twenty minutes east in Delta, AL. Infamous among off-road parks in Alabama, the trails at Morris Mountain range from Level 1 to Level 5, with Levels 1 and 2 being ideal for beginners whose trucks are outfitted with basic lift kits, and Levels 3 to 5 being built for fully tricked out vehicles. Hop on the Sunday Drive trail for a simple Level 1 experience following an idyllic creek through the forest, or put your skills to the test on the Scenic Overlook, a Level 5 trail featuring rock gardens and ledges that will put you in a near-vertical position as you crawl your way up.
