There use to be so many great places to ride around cowtown. Mclean has sucked for many years. We use to go to Wiaporous, but I have heard alot of that area has been shut down. I lived in Calagry for 15 years. I know live in Hinton. If you ever want to experiance the sand dunes and some of the best woods riding anywhere, look me up. I'll show you around.

Hinton is a 6 hour drive from Calgary. We are located on hiway 16 west of Edmonton and about 20k east of the Jasper park gate. The pic in the post is a 20 min quad ride from my back door. There are lots of camping areas or several great hotels. If you are hoteling it call ahead. Oil and gas activity here fill most of the hotels very quickly. Let me know when you want to come. I'm always here.
If you have never been to Wiaporous I would definately check it out. There is alot of good riding left out there for Quads. I use to be into the big 4x4 trucks. I think it because of the big mudders that certain areas where closed. Check out for more info on where to ride.

FYI- Waiparous is open but make sure you have registration and insurance as well as headlight and taillight. They are cracking down. But it is designated OHV area. And only about 45 mins from Calgary.

Where in Caroline did you go to get setup? Googling you can see roads but no trails.

go through caroline, about 10min past going west you will see taye river drive for about 2 min and you will see a yellow sign on the rd to the left take that road all the way to the end you will cross over 2 bridges, (theres quad trails everywhere) at the end of the road hang a right, and we camp out about 5min down that road to the left, theres a large pile of logs off a small rd.

Ya there is lots of riding down south. Mclean creek, Indian Graves, Dutch Creek, Wipouras(still lot of riding there), Burnt timber, Caroline, Rocky Mtn House, Prairie creek, Nordegg, Ram River. There are so many areas around calgary or a couple hours drive it is not even funny. And i think they are all have there ups and downs.

Hello,
I was wondering where this sand dunes and some of the best woods riding is? I have lived in calgary all my life almost 20 years and have just gotten a quad and I'm wondering where i can go thats not overally far from calgary but is a good place to go.

Thanks.
