I was driving up the PA turnpike last week and saw an ATV riding in what looked like coal quarry or something similar. I checked it out on the map and it was right over Slatington. Does anyone know if it's a regular area people ride and if they mind? I live about 20 mins away.

 

Don't ride in Slatington but I do ride in Hazleton/Freeland PA.

 

viper5, The area in Hazleton you ride ,is that the same place that was once Paragon. I hear you can still park at a local bar and ride. There is another place called Lost Trails in Pocono Manor north east of Hazleton at the intersection of R80 and 380

 

I live pretty close to Lost trails. www.losttrails.com
I think It's like $40 a bike to ride for the day up there.
where exactly is this place to park if you wanna ride in Hazleton? are the police or anyone gonna give people a hard time if you go there? It's a shame it's so difficult to find places to have good clean fun around PA. My son is 10 and I'm just teaching him to ride, the biggest problem is finding a place, we don't have a lot of land. I really don't want to be teaching him to run from the cops. haha

No it's not the old Paragon, I never liked Paragon it's way to rocky for a sport quad your allways bending skids at Paragon. I start in Hazleton and ride trhu Freeland and such

I have property in Hazleton behind my shop that has trail access so I just open the garage door and go. (doesn't get any easier than that I guess)
