Check official sources or contact local authorities for reopening information and current status.
The Deep Creek trail system, located in the Little Belt Mountains, is currently closed for the season. It features about 75 miles of designated single-track trails that are primarily geared towards advanced riders. The trail system is known for its steep climbs and descents, narrow ridges, switchbacks, and rugged sections of loose rock. The terrain is mostly hard-packed and rocky with many steep hills, and there are a few water crossings.
A Montana OHV permit is required. While there are a few side trails open to ATVs and UTVs with a maximum width of 50 inches, this area is primarily for dirtbike riders. Jeeps are prohibited. Camping is permitted in some areas at the Logging Creek Campground, which is located a few miles north of the Deep Creek Trailhead.Dirt Bike Trail System
