Probably the most expansive set of trails is found in the Deerfield area. Make your base camp at the national forest campground at Ditch Creek.
Trail 291 is the backbone of the adventure you are about to experience. Take Trail 6006 to the East or Trail 6024 West. If you are lucky you will be able to explore the Silica Mines or maybe hike Hat Mountain.

Black Hills National Forest Map
The Black Hills have great ATV trails and Forest Service roads. I have traveled most of them. Our forest service roads are either road-like or trail-like. On my Favorite Rides pages, I have highlighted the many TRAIL-LIKE Forest Service Roads and the ATV trails.
I put this website together to help others enjoy their ATV visit to South Dakota. When I ATV out of my state, I realize how difficult it is to plan a three day ride without good information. I hope my website will be good information for you.
