Hey anybody got any opinions bout the Badlands in Indiana?I saw it in the new issue of Dirtwheels.Me and my uncle are gonna head up there next summer.I live in southeastern ohio.I hope its worth the trip.It looks bad as he!!.Well let me know wazzz upppp. I got a highly modified 2000 Warrior and hes gotta 2001 400ex.Later!@

 

I'll be there this weekend. Saturday 8/26.

I've never ridden at any other ATV park, so can't really tell you how it compares. But we keep going back, about every other weekend.

I can guarantee you, that there is something there for every rider. Woods, mud, water, and hills. Lots and lots of hills. Sand, hard pack, pea gravel, you name it, there is a hill made of it.

Plan to get a two day pass, it's only 20 bucks. 15 for one day. You wont be dissapointed.

My brother and I went there this past weekend. First time I have been there. It was great!! I have only been to Fingerlakes in MO. Both places are loads of fun. I'm 42 years old and my brother is 32 and we fell like we were beat up. We went there Saturday thru Monday and had so much fun we plan on making it a twice a year event. Go you'll have a blast.

 

Hey Swain, I am new to the Quad thing, mine are still on order. But, I am a old timer to Jeepin, I have had my CJ-7 up to the Badlands. I cant wait to go back. It is great.
Understand you are from SE Ohio? Have you ever been to Negley or YellowCreek? Both good places to go. Again, I had my Jeep there, not quads. But they are great areas to ride no matter what.

 

I have been to Fingerlakes,St.Joe Mo. and the Badlands. The Bandlands offer the most variety but
I don't like the fact that the don't have onsite camping. Also the DirtWheels article mentions a flat track, if they have one I didn't see it.

 

THE FLAT TRACK IS NEW. IT IS FOR GO-KART RACING. THEY PUT IT BETWEEN THE CHECKIN STATION/OFFICE AND THE MOTOCROSS TRACK.

I LOVE GOING DOWN THERE. YOU CAN RIDE FOR AWHILE IN ONE SPOT THEN IF YOU GET BORED YOU CAN HIT SOMTHING ELSE. YOU HAVE TONS OF OPTIONS!!

YOU GUYS JUST HELPED ME DECIDE. I'M GONNA GO DOWN ON SUNDAY!

ROCK-ON!!!

 

Does anybody know where the closest campground is? We would like to plan a trip this fall.

 

8 miles from there is Summers-Carroll Campground and it's pretty nice. It's on the north end of town on 55. If you primitive camp=8.00 per night. With electric=16.00 per night. It's not well marked from the main highway 41 so you have to watch for 55. The entrance road is 6 miles north of 41 on 55. I have nothing to do with the camp ground and there may be something closer or nicer but I'm a tent camper and I thought this place was really nice and peaceful. Lots of atvs and Jeeps there on the weekends so you have loads of rides to look at and owners to talk to.
