A RIDE ACROSS THE TUSHARS

A side loop of Utah’s famous Paiute Trail, one of the best recreational rides in the state, comes into Beaver County and is easily accessible. Beaver County’s portion of the Paiute trail takes you through stunning vistas, technical ascents, and dense forest environments.

From the main trail, riders will find over 1000 miles of marked side trails and an estimated 1500 plus miles of side forest roads and trails. To ride the complete Paiute Trail takes an estimated 25 hours, so it is often enjoyed in segments. If you are looking to do the complete loop, we recommend planning out a three to four-day trip.

The Paiute trail caters to ATV riders looking for relaxing, family-type riding as well as stretches that will challenge technical riders.

Looking to take an extended trip? There are many camping sites located near the path and areas for additional activities like fishing, hiking, and wildlife viewpoints. The trail also has points of access from numerous cities with hotels, restaurants, and other recreational activities.

The trail climbs high up in the Tushar Mountains and offers views that can’t be beaten. The riding season is dictated by mother nature with higher elevations often closed into July. Spring riding is often constrained to the lower portions of the trail and as the snow melts, high altitude portions will be opened. High altitude portions are popular in summer as they offer an escape from the heat in the valley. It is the fall that is widely recognized as the best time of year to ride. The days are brisk, the nights are cool, the trees are colorful, and there are typically clear skies, making the chance of catching a view that spans hundreds of miles possible. As winter storms roll in, watch the weather as trail segments will be closed.
