In order to keep the offroad community up to date with the latest and most accurate wheeling information, we have created an offroad trails map that covers the entire USA.  The trails map on Where2Wheel is powered by the offroad community and is totally reliant on individual offroaders contributing their knowledge to keep the map up to date and accurate.  So if you do go wheeling on any of these trails, make sure to leave a review on W2W, or make any adjustments to the trail descriptions as needed since trail conditions can, and often do, change frequently.

Alright, we were talking about offroad trails near Dover, DE.  Again, last warning, we are talking about Jeep trails and 4x4 trails that are large/wide enough to fit a passenger vehicle - no ATVs or dirtbikes talked about here.  The first offroad trail near Dover is MuddyNutz Play Ground located only 10 miles SE of Dover just before you hit the coast.  MuddyNutz is an offroad park in Dover, DE; make sure to check their site for opening times and prices.  At MuddyNutz you can expect to find lots of mud pits as well as a Jeep obstacle course for those that want more than mud. 

Looking a little further south of Dover, we currently have 4 trails near the MD/DE state line.  You can view these trails via the Where2Wheel trails map.  I'll mention one of those trails is Delaware Beach Access.  Between Ocean City, MD and Lewes, DE the state of Delaware has about 25 miles of Atlantic Ocean coastline. Three sections of this area are state parks and allow off-road vehicles but only for the purpose of salt-water fishing. A permit is required and regulations are enforced. The permit is $65 in state and $130 for those from out-of-state. These state parks are called Cape Henlopen (in the North near Lewes), Delaware Seashore (in the middle near Rehobeth Beach), and Fenwick Island (in the South near Ocean City, MD). **Permit-holder must be actively engaged in surf fishing when the vehicle is parked on the beach. Appropriate fishing gear must be present - bait, tackle, pole. For the safety of the fishermen, vehicles must carry a low-pressure tire gauge, a tow rope/chain, a board, jack, and shovel.  Check out the W2W trails map to see more beach access points and trails in this area.

The last offroad trail that we are going to cover near Dover, Delaware is Pine Barrens located 107 miles NE of Dover. I realize that a two hour drive is a lot of travel time, but Pine Barrens is well worth the drive. If you are looking for closer trails to Dover, DE then click here to visit the Where2Wheel trails map.  As for Pine Barrens, the trail system is located in Wharton State Park in Hammonton, NJ.  Pine Barrens has over 500 miles of unpaved roads that tend to get extremely muddy when conditions are wet; it is a great spot to spend a day of offroading, but make sure to brief yourself on the rules before heading out to Pine Barrens. Once again, there are many more Jeep trails and 4x4 trails listed on Where2Wheel, but it's easier if you visit W2W and view the offroad trails map for yourself..
