One of the best things about remote cabins, cottages, camps and lakehomes is that they are never far from a good wilderness path. When you get the itch to hit the trail, there are plenty of options for hiking, biking and riding ATVs or other off-road vehicles (ORVs). Here are just a few worthy ATV/ORV trails found in the U.S.
Bighorn National Forest, Wyo.
The diverse landscape of the west is on display here, with mountain views and grasslands aplenty. You may also spot some wildlife.

While it may be a short route (23 miles), this is a “great trail for ATVs, side-by-sides and Jeeps,” says Cabin Life Facebook follower Laurie Happ.

If you’re up for a bit of a challenge, this trail system has more than 600 miles of off-road routes that are open year-round to ATVs, UTVs and dirt bikes.
