Off-road Suggestions In Texas

Hello everyone. Looking for some suggestions for offroad parks or trails in Texas. Maybe a few hours from Houston. I have only taken my truck through some some mud spots by the levee (fishing spots). Feel free to post offroad pics!

Here are the places I heard of so far:

Galveston, TX San Luis Pass
Matagorda, TX (miles of sands to drive in)

 

Here ya go

Thanks!

 

Unfortunately, most parks and trails are a few hours from metro population centers like Houston and DFW.

These are the ones I can remember off the top of my head:

BMRA in Gilmer
Hidden Falls in Marble Falls
Escondido Draw in Ozona
Katemcy Rocks in Mason
Bridgeport OHV in Bridgeport
Big Bend National Park

I haven’t tried looking, but I’m guessing there might be some national forest dirt roads in Angelina and Davy Crockett National Forests. I’ve also heard of some dirt roads at the LBJ National Grasslands.

Out of state I know of Hot Springs OHV park in Arkansas (went there about 15 years ago) and some trails in southeast Oklahoma by Clayton. Further away there are some nice trails at Santa Fe National Forest east of Santa Fe.

There’s also a new, privately-owned, members-only OHV park in Palo Duro Canyon. I looked into it, but membership was pretty pricey last I checked.

And in this Texas folder there’s a thread where someone took there Tundra through miles and miles of dirt roads through parts of Texas.

I’m sure there are others that I’ve forgotten about. Hopefully others will chime in.

 

Just came back from Hidden Falls last or two weekends ago. It’s a nice place with plenty of technical trails. Can camp but, get somewhat pricey. I paid 40 for wheeling and camping with a discount. They also charge per passenger.

offcamber is a driving school in Llano. Pricey but one fee will cover any passengers (literally as many as you bring, everyone can drive the course) Since this is a school/instructional, the prices are much higher than HF

Cheers!

 

this is a good one - Bridgeport OHV in Bridgeport

 

I think there is an abandoned subdivision that people use in bastrop for free!
