Explore Northern Minnesota Off-Roading Adventures!
Iron Range Off-Highway Vehicle State Recreation Area
Gilbert is home to Minnesota's first designated state recreation area for off-highway vehicles and ATVs. This expansive park features over 1,200 acres of recreation trails, scramble areas, and facilities for off-road motorcycles, all-terrain vehicles, and 4x4 jeeps and trucks. A notable addition is the West Forty RV Park, which offers a short, unpaved connector trail just outside our campground entrance, linking directly to the Genoa Trail. This unpaved section can be utilized by ATVs, OHMs, and side-by-sides to access the main connecting trail for the Iron Range Off-Highway Vehicle State Recreation Area. Additionally, outdoor enthusiasts can explore the nearby Mesabi Trail for more recreational opportunities. For more information, call 218-748-2207 or visit the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources website. Don’t forget to check out the nearby Redhead Mountain Bike Park for mountain biking adventures!
