From the State Park website:
The off-road vehicle (ORV) riding area is approximately 2,000 acres. It has been set aside for motorcycles, all terrain vehicles (ATVs), dune buggies and four-wheel drive vehicles. There are about 800 acres of “sand-flats,” a sand-like substance of crushed limestone, which is a lead-mining remnant. The remainder of the area is wooded hillsides that are steep in some areas.
The ORV staging area is located north of the park office and has three small shelters, vault toilets, water, a change house, picnic tables and barbecue grills. Pim Lake and beach are adjacent to this area.
A $3 daily fee is required for each off road vehicle. The off-road riding area is open during the following times:
* 7 a.m. - 5 p.m. daily from October through March and
* 7 a.m. - 8 p.m. daily from April through September.
