Nearest to you

The ten closest mapped places to where you are, across every state, measured in a straight line. Your location stays in this browser: it is not sent to us or anyone else, and nothing is saved.

    Only the 190 places with a pin can be measured (74 of them approximate); the other 101 are on their state pages. Road distance is longer than a straight line.

    By state

    Permits and stickers, all states in one table

    Each state with a page is outlined in yellow. Dots are placed from coordinates on the place’s own page; hollow dots are approximate, at the centre of the ZIP code in its printed address. Alaska and Hawaii are drawn to their own scale. Outlines: U.S. Census Bureau.

    Trail-day kit

    Water, a way to fix a flat and the tools your bike takes. One of each at MotoSport, chosen by a fixed rule: the item nearest the middle of the price range, from a brand it carries in depth. We have not tested them.

    These are affiliate links: we may earn a commission, at no cost to you, and it never changes the specs. Affiliate disclosure.

    Prices and stock from MotoSport's product catalog on Oct 19, 2026; they change, so check the price at MotoSport before you buy. A catalog selection, not a recommendation.

    By kind of riding

    Each link opens a state page filtered to the places whose quoted pages name it.

    Where kids can ride: 26 places in 15 states whose own pages mention kids’ tracks, pee-wee areas or young riders.

    How this list is made

    Public land comes from official sources only: state OHV programs and parks, the Forest Service, the Bureau of Land Management, and county and city parks. Private tracks and riding parks come from their own websites (the Pro Motocross series pages stand in for a national’s own site). Never social networks, forums, directories or trail apps. Each place carries sentences quoted from its own pages, each with the date it was checked, and a second reader checks every quote against the page before it goes up.

    The tags come from those quotes: a place is under “Camping” only when a quoted sentence talks about camping there, and the build refuses a tag its quote does not name. Solid pins come from coordinates the page gives; hollow pins sit at the Census centre of the ZIP code in the printed address and say so; the build refuses any point outside its state. A state whose permit rule we have not found on an official page says so instead of guessing. Pages are reviewed twice a year.
