The Buffalo Springs Lake OHV Area offers approximately 13 miles of designated trails that present a diverse array of terrain for dirt bike riders. The trail system primarily consists of hard-packed ground, transitioning between chunky, somewhat rocky sections and smooth, fast-flowing paths. Riders can anticipate light to moderate changes in elevation with few steep hills, making it mostly suitable for intermediate-level riders, although some sections are appropriate for novices. The lightly maintained trails feature some single-track, a few small jumps, and occasional berms, with minimal loose dirt or sand under typical, dusty conditions.
Situated overlooking the scenic lake, this area is open to all off-road vehicles. Key regulations include a mandatory Texas OHV decal for all machines, and helmets and eye protection are required at all times. Riding is restricted to daytime hours, from sunup to sundown, with no night riding permitted. There are specific engine size restrictions based on the operator's age, and camping is available in designated areas.Dirt Bike Trail System
