Rubicon OHV Trail

The Rubicon OHV Trail is widely recognized as the premiere OHV route in the United States. This trans-Sierra route from northern El Dorado County to Lake Tahoe was the focus of several government agencies and OHV user groups during 2000 and 2001. An extremely successful trail reconstruction and maintenance project was completed by all the interested parties on the Lake Tahoe end of the trail during 2001.

Jurisdictional and environmental issues relating to the trail exist on the western end of the trail in El Dorado County. El Dorado County, the U.S. Forest Service, along with a vast coalition of individuals, private landowners, clubs, and other user group organizations are currently working together to solve these issues.

Together, we can make the Rubicon OHV Trail a showplace of responsible four-wheeling at its best.
