ATV Riders, Please Read, Respect, and Ride Safe.

Please adhere to items below, identified issues threaten Maine ATV trails.

  • ATV trails are provided by the landowners as a courtesy and is a privilege to the rider. ATV trails will be closed if landowner rules, Maine laws, and signs are ignored.
  • ATV’s must only be ridden on Marked ATV Trails, Signed ATV Access Routes, or on land where the operator has obtained permission. It is unlawful to operate ATV’s on land of another without permission.
  • ATV access routes are provided to allow access to businesses. Please keep ATV’s off residential roads as much as possible. The ATV trail accesses many businesses and gas stations. Please remain on the ATV trail when possible.
  • When using the paved town roads as access routes, operate in the travel lane and at the posted speed limit. This ensures that traffic is not slowed, and vehicles are not passing ATV’s. Access routes are permitted for riders 16 years of age and older 8:30am through Dusk.
  • Most local ATV trails are gravel logging roads provided for use as ATV trails. Vehicles have the right of way. When approaching an oncoming vehicle or being passed by a vehicle please pull to the side, slow, or stop your ATV and wait for dust to settle. When ATV’s or vehicles are traveling in groups, visibility from following vehicles can be extremely poor.
  • If you find yourself around a logging operation or equipment working on roads you must stop a safe distance away from the equipment until the equipment operator sees you. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO PASS the working equipment. Doing so is a serious danger to the ATVer and will likely result in future restrictions of ATV’s.
  • Utilize bridges that are provided at stream crossings. It is illegal to operate an ATV in a stream, brook, gravel stream edges, or any other water body.
  • Gated roads on ATV trails have openings for ATV’s. Travel slow through the gate and accelerate gradually to avoid creating potholes. If your ATV does not fit because of potholes, take time to fix the pothole. Do not ride around gates.
  • Please remember that the same area you are riding in is used by many others recreating in different ways. Some campers and fishermen are seeking peace and solitude. Hunters are quietly sitting on stands… etc. Please keep others in mind.
  • It is Maine law that ATVers stop and identify themselves to a landowner representative or law enforcement. If it looks like someone is trying to get your attention, stop and talk to them. Take the time to thank landowners and foresters when you have the opportunity. Fees are not collected to ride on trails and the trails are provided as a courtesy by the landowner. Do your part to fix something that is not right.
