    Ganaraska Forest


    Description:

    Come and experience Southern Ontario's largest forest! Located within a 45 minute drive of Toronto straddling the Counties of Northumberland, Peterborough, Victoria and the Region of Durham, the Ganaraska Forest offers the best in outdoor recreation.

    Take a ride and explore the many kilometres of trails and logging roads in the Ganaraska Forest. Easy parking and multiple entry points ensure a number of exciting adventuresome routes are waiting to be explored.

    The largest block of continuous forest in Southern Ontario, "The Ganny" is a huge expanse of 11,000 acres with hundreds of kilometres of trails.

    Rules:

    A forest day-pass ($25) or seasons-pass ($125) is required to ride. Your ATC must be green (offroad) plated and have valid liability insurance. Trails are open to ATCs May 1st - December 1st (open to snowmobiles in the winter).

    We were never not allowed, it has always been a requirement since the mid eighties, No issue with the MTO getting plates, just did both Tecates last week. Insurance is just your run of the mill ATV insurance with your Home/ Auto carrier. Mine is with State Farm and it depends on the machine but is something like $8-10 a month for liability.

    This section is for information only. Any ride planning should be done in the Rides, Races, Events, Locations section and not in these sub-forums.
    In order to abide by the rules of this forum, I have created a separate May 1st ride planning thread here:

    Xhumeka, which two bikes were you planning on bringing? I live in Bowmanville, you could drop a bike off on your way through, and put it in my garage, but that does you no good when you want to switch up your bikes, but you would have one close in case of a break down.
