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 Philly, PA.  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 Philadelphia is Pine Barrens located 36 miles E of Philly.  I realize that an hour and twenty minutes one-way is a lot of travel time, but Pine Barrens is well worth the drive.  If you are looking for closer trails to Philly that don't require crossing State lines, 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 and would also make sure to bring some type of communication device in the event you get lost. 

The next offroad trails near Philadelphia are Jeeps at the Farm located 30 miles NE of Philly and a lesser known local trail another 10 miles N from Jeeps at the Farm.  I'll leave it to you to check out the Where2Wheel trails map to find the local trail and other less known trails like it, it's free just click this link to view the map.  As for Jeeps at the Farm, this is a small farm turned ORV Park a few times a year; it's a great place to connect with your local Jeep community at when they are open for wheeling.  See their open dates and latest happenings here.

The last offroad trail that we are going to cover near Philly is one spot that no Pennsylvania offroad discussion should go without, and that is Rausch Creek Off-Road ParkRausch Creek Off-Road Park is located 111 miles NW of Philly, and we have another 10ish trails on the W2W map that are closer towards Philadelphia, but Rausch Creek stands above them all as the East Coast Mecca of Offroading.  Rausch Creek Off Road Park is devoted to providing a fun, legal place for off-road enthusiasts to go four-wheeling. The park consists of almost 3,000 acres of easy, intermediate, and difficult trails - featuring rocks, bowls, hills, club friendly trails, and free, on-site camping. There is a 2-vehicle minimum to drive the trails; make sure to check out other things that you need to know before visiting by viewing their site here .  If you're looking for more offroad options, perhaps some trails that can be accessed for free, 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.
