About Us
Welcome! Our Parish, NY property offers over 150 acres of off road trails, rated 1-6 (in normal weather conditions) for enthusiasts and nature lovers. Our market is directed to small and midsize stock or slightly modified 4WD vehicles driven by people like us who drive their rigs daily. We offer you miles and miles of trails for your pleasure. Some trails are very challenging, but we always try to offer you a safety loop around the most demanding obstacles. We have designed the trails to compliment the fabulous terrain of our land.
What do we have? All of our trails allow traffic up or down, doubling your off road experience. We offer over 30 hill climbs ranging from 3' to 75' foot in grade. We have mud if that is your pleasure. Enjoy cool relief in summer as you travel in the shade through our 85 acres of woods. We have incorporated thousands of the boulders and field stones from our old stone fences into our trails. Our water obstacles range from 3 inches to 3 feet in depth, depending on the season. We have spent years grooming our trails, and have removed most hanging and ground branches (as long as you stay on the trail).
We have clean outhouses for your comfort.
Our trails are very tight as most of our trails are in the woods. All visitors ride the main trail with the more challenging obstacles being loops off or near the main trail. Of course with any off road adventure there is a risk of bodily harm as well vehicle damage. We are sorry but no full-sized trucks or large SUVs are allowed on trails. These vehicles would not enjoy most of our trails.
We will refuse any vehicle with problems detected from our safety inspection, especially unrestricted or loud exhaust systems. (see list of definite problems ).
Basic Requirements:
Seat belts and rollover protection for all occupants
Full size spare tire
Battery tie down - no bungee cords
One point of access, as tow hook or frame mounted trailer hitch
Front and rear points of access for all difficult obstacles
Tow Strap
Cell Phone & Walkie Talkie

Definite Problems:
Expired State Inspection/Registration/Insurance
