ATVs St. Lawrence County

A popular outdoor recreational activity in Northern New York is ATV trail riding. The St Lawrence County Multi-Use Trail is a designated ATV trail that includes trail segments on public and private lands, with a key feature being a trail system thru Ft Jackson and Brasher Forests. Select Town and County Roads are used to connect the off road sections of the trail and are identified with brown signs that include an ATV symbol.

St Lawrence County Multi-Use ATV Trails are open May 15 to September 15 (unless otherwise posted).

NOTE: A New Trail Pass system goes into effect for St. Lawrence County ATV trails on June 1, 2021. Order your Trail Pass and Map HERE.
