Does anyone know about the new rules at some of the parks?  According to their websites, Hogwaller and Soggy Bottom in Macclenny on the Georgia border both now require all ATV's and UTV's to have Flags mounted on them.  It is some kind of new insurance regulation.  If you go without one, they will make you buy one from them.

I rode through Hastings today and was thinking about riding out there.  It sounds like fun.

I've been there several times.  I didn't care for it too much. 

They are going to open this weekend for one last ATV weekend before they close according to their website.  I definitely plan on being there. 

Do you know anywhere else around that is as good as Hogwaller, preferably 1-2 hours from Middleburg?

Does anyone know why Hogwaller closes from Memorial day to Labor day?  We were planning on going out there in 2 weeks but found they are closed for the summer.  That is the best time to go riding.  Does anyone else know of any other good places to go riding in NE Florida

Unfortunately I won't be able to take our ATV's out for a while.  It would be fun though.

06grizz,

I saw some other posts in other threads about you going to Hogwaller.  We just went out there this last weekend for the first time during the ATV weekend.  After going there, we may not even go back to Soggy Bottom.  There really is no comparison. 

Also I forgot to mention, the area around the truck mud pit is extremely congested and very tight with all of the mud trucks and the ATV's and the people on the ATV's there have very little respect.  Plus they allow dirt bikes which will run you ever if you don't get out of their way.

The place is SandHill ATV Park and we went there a few weeks ago.  It was $10 per person no matter how many ATV's you have.  The trails through the woods were pretty good and it would be hard to get through some of them without 4 wheel drive.

We have been there 3 times in the last couple of months.  The trails are ok with some good hills but they are for the most part pretty easy.  The trails are also not that long.  The whole park is only like 150 acres.  They do have a separate mud pit for ATV's than for the trucks.  The mud pit is pretty good.  Unless it has rained recently there is very little mud on the trails.

When we go there, we go with someone who has a mud truck.  Unless you are going there to watch the trucks also, then there really isn't much to do unless you play in the mud pit.  We all decided we won't be going back there for a while since we have seen all the trails several times.  There is only so many times that you can ride up and down the same trail before it gets boring.

I would give the place a C for ATV's.
