Even though this state is said to be one of the rainiest states in the U.S., it still has some good trails to ride on. If you like to ride in the mud and rain then this state will be perfect for you to do some trail riding! Below are a few places we found while searching places to trail ride in this state.
1. Evans Creek OHV Loop
This park is about 45 miles southeast of Seattle, on the way to Mowich Lake on Highway 165. There's a little something for everyone in the Park. The routes range in difficulty from easy to challenging and are designed for motorbikes, ATVs, and off-road vehicles. For those who want to camp, there is a campsite that can accommodate even larger RVs. Northwest Forest passes are necessary to enter the park, and enforcement personnel are frequently seen looking for them. Trails are numbered and labeled for difficulty and vehicle type. Evans Creek provides enough of a challenge as well as stunning scenery, including unequaled Mount Rainier views. The weather and season can have a big impact on the conditions at Evans Creek.

2. Riverside State Park ORV Area
This area offers 600 acres of enjoyment! The region was set aside for Off-Road Vehicles in the 1980s, and motorcycles, ATVs, and four-wheelers have proven to be highly popular. Hill climbs, sand sections, and woodland pathways are all part of the terrain. The location has restrooms, parking, two picnic shelters, a loading/unloading ramp, a training area, and more. Riverside State Park's Bowl and Pitcher section has camping available nearby. Unless they are street-legal, ORVs (or OHVs as they are known in other places) must be trailered to the ORV area. Park rangers keep an eye on the ORV region. The rules and regulations are strictly adhered to. Click here for more info.
