Want to go offroading near Frederick, Maryland?

Where2Wheel will help you find offroad trails near you! We exclusively cover Jeep trails, 4×4 trails, truck trails, and OHV trails.  Read along and we will point out offroad places near Frederick, MD.

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 Frederick, MD.  Again, last warning, we are talking about Jeep trails and 4×4 trails that are large/wide enough to fit a passenger vehicle – no ATVs or dirtbikes talked about here.  The first offroad trail near Frederick, MD is the Frederick Watershed Area located less than 10 miles north of Frederick.  At The Frederick Watershed Area you will find some creek crossings and small elevation changes, but nothing that should scare even a stock 4×4 rig. You should not need any special equipment beyond your basic tow rope and recovery kit. 

The next offroad trail near Frederick, MD is St John’s Rock ORV Trail located about 100 miles west of Frederick.  It’s about a 90 minute drive from Frederick to St John’s Rock, but absolutely worth it for some high-quality 4×4 action.  The St. John’s Rock ORV Trail, located within Savage River State Forest, includes more than 12 miles of woodland trails professionally conceptualized and constructed specifically for recreational enjoyment and use. ORV enthusiasts and riders provided contractors and engineers feedback and input on the trail throughout the process.  This gem of an offroad area was created by the Maryland Department of Natural Resources, so make sure to check their site about operating hours and cost before heading out.  Friendly reminder: you can view trail reviews and also browse the offroad trails map on Where2Wheel.com – W2W is free to access and use!

The last offroad spots that we are going to cover near Frederick, MD is Big Dogs Offroad Park and Chaos Off Road Park, both are located about 70 to 80 miles SW of Frederick.  I wanted to list both of these parks since they are each only open a few times a year, so check their sites and/or social media to see if your calander lines up with theirs. (Big Dogs website & Chaos website).  If you get lucky enough to be wheeling the same weekend that either of these parks is open, you won’t regret making the trip to wheel either of these legendary parks.  If you’re looking for more offroad options, maybe something a bit more local, there are many more Jeep trails and 4×4 trails listed on Where2Wheel, but it’s easier if you visit W2W and view the offroad trails map for yourself.
