Does anyone know of good trail ride area in the Augusta area?

I live in Evans and there is not a lot locally unless you know someone with some land. There is a place off Windsor Spring Road out behind a fire station that some people ride at. But it's not legal so I do not go there anymore.
The closest place is http://www.sunnysideatv.com/ . Haven't ridden there personally but heard it's OK.

The next would probably be Aonia ( http://www.aonia-pass-mx.com/ ). Not a lot of trails but a few and good MX tracks.

The best place is a bit further down the road but well worth it is Durhamtown. It's near Crawfordville about ~50 minutes or so from my house. www.durhamtown.com

There are some decent trails over in SC near Mccormick, I think. Cedar Springs and Parson Mnt. Sorry I don't have a link.

One other thing you can do is go over to http://www.georgiaoffroad.com/ and hit the forums. There's alot of people that might can suggest some other places.

Thank you for the links, I have been trying to find some trails for my Kids to ride on as they are very green.
I've been by Sunny side several times but the gate has always been closed and no phone number. Web-site will help. I've heard of DurhamTown also hear it is not controlled alot of ATV'S running every which way.
I live out in Harlem so it's pretty close.

Just my opinion but Durhamtown is the place to go. I have been there about 30 times over the last few years and have never seen ATV's running every which way.
There are miles and miles of one way trails. Only a couple (one is all that immediately comes to mind) two way trails. But it's wide open and only for a short distance. They also have someplaces where you can only go idle speeds so it is very safe IMO.

The Green trails are the best ones to ride especially if you have kids. Just make sure they watch behind them from time to time and stay to the right if someone approaches them from behind.

Not sure how old your kids are or what they ride but the peewee track is the best I have ever seen.

And if you go during the weekdays there is almost no one there.
The worst part is if it is crowded there can be alot of dust. But that's mostly only on the MX tracks.

I will second Durhamtown.

It is a great facility for riders of all levels and ages. Although the facility can be crowded on the weekends, while on the trails it feels like you are the only people out there.

Well worth the trip in my opinion.

I have the perfect family place!!! I have never been to Durhamtown...due to being really crowded on the weekends, but a wonderful place called Broad River ATV! Our family has been there numerous times. All kinds of trails and mx tracks and harescramble tracks. Food, bike wash, cabins, tent areas, nicest folks you will ever meet, reasonable prices, small pro shop, rentals, they just put in a bunch of gnarly jumps on the river trails, the mx track is extreme, the youth track is fun...my son is 8 and digs the tabletops, I can go on and on. Not super crowded. It is 30 min north from Durhamtown. AWSOME place. Broadriveratv.com.

Keep an eye out for the post but a group of guys from this site are looking to get together at Durhamtown this March. I think Cheezeburger from Tenn. was putting something together!!!

I second BanditX. Broad river is nice as well. The facilities are a little nicer than Durhamtown. Honestly, you cant go wrong either way!!!
