There is a wealth of ATV trails to enjoy here, and this post will help you plan your next off-roading getaway by covering the best ATV trails in Canada.

Best ATV Trails in British Columbia

Blackcomb Mountain in Whistler

You can explore the mountain and the valley around it on your ATV. This is the perfect spot for bringing the entire family with all athletic levels because there is something for everyone to do. The Salmon Bake with patio dining and beautiful views is an exciting fringe benefit of this trip.

Gold Bridge Trails

It’s a tiny town, but the trails are remarkable as you’ll see rocky cliffs, sparkling lakes, and snowy mountains. When you’re not riding, you can also visit the abandoned gold mine. Because Gold Bridge is fairly close to Blackcomb Mountain, you could start your trip here and head over to Whistler for double the fun.

Buck Hills Quad Ride near Lavington

User Jay44 submitted this 140 km route on Wikiloc. It’s not an ATV park or heavily accessed area, so this is the perfect trip for someone who wants to go where fewer have been. You’ll be traveling through woods and then on gravel trails. There are even a couple of creek beds to cross.

This trail system touches the Algonquin Highlands, Laurentian Mountains, and Mattawa and Ottawa rivers. You can combine ATV-riding with other outdoor activities, choose between easy and more challenging trails, visit the abandoned mica mine, or pop into a close town. Most of the trails are old logging roads that have been shaded by forests, and there are plenty of beautiful sights to see as you ride.

This trail offers a fairly smooth elevation. We’ll warn you about the dip in the middle. You can also enjoy a combination of both natural wonders and man-made curiosities before ending at Eugenia Falls which is one of the most impressive falls in the Niagara Escarpment.
