Anthracite Outdoor Adventure Area (AOAA) is a massive 8,500-acre park that provides a rugged and varied experience for dirt bike riders of all skill levels. The extensive trail system includes a handful of narrow single-track trails, but the majority of the riding is on multi-use paths that feature steep hill climbs, scattered rock gardens, and deep mud holes. The terrain is mostly hard-packed and rocky, winding through a dense forest and offering a true challenge, particularly for intermediate to expert riders.
This large, multi-use park is open to all OHV types and features a well-marked and rated trail system to help with navigation. The facility is a major off-road destination with year-round operation and an adjacent campground for multi-day stays. An OHV permit is required, and the park frequently hosts large events, so checking their calendar is recommended before a visit.Dirt Bike Trail System
