• The system provides approximately 13.4 miles of recreational driving for OHV enthusiasts, including those riding four-wheel drive vehicles, motorcycles, UTV's and ATVs. This is the only trail system on public land in Georgia that supports full-size vehicles, greater than 50 inches. Many of the features are designed for full-size vehicles, and some trails may not accomodate shorter wheel bases or two-wheel vehicles. 
• Motorized trails close when conditions are wet to prevent trail damage and erosion into streams. The Beasley Knob Trails are open from sunrise to sunset. Beasley Knob Is closed seasonally from January 1 to April 1. Check the status of your favorite trail. 
• A full list of rules and regulations, including those implemented by the state of Georgia, are listed here. 
• The system is made up of interconnecting dirt trails, rock hill climbs and gravel roads through the Chattahoochee National Forest. It is recommended for experienced riders, only, due to its challenging terrain and steep ascents. Please, no bolted, studded or tire chains allowed. 
• Annual Passes are valid for Houston Valley, Whissenhunt, Beasley Knob, Town Creek, Oakey Mountain, and Davenport OHV Trails. NOTE: You must purchase and print the annual pass ahead of time and display in your tow vehicle. You can also print an operator pass to carry with you on the trail or download it to your device.

A pass is required per OHV operator and covers the use of the OHV on the specified trails. You must enter the names for each rider and a license plate for each tow vehicle that will be at the trailhead. Passes can be downloaded to each rider's phones, and/or printed ahead of time and carried on the trail. You can enter separate emails for each rider, or the purchaser can forward to an email or text the pass to each rider. 

This pass is valid until 11:59 PM of the date listed on the pass, and only for the date and vehicle specified for this pass. If you no longer have the vehicle associated with the Annual Pass, you need to come into an office and get a physical pass.
