Nestled between the Chuckwalla Mountains and the Chocolate Mountain Aerial Gunnery Range is a great ATV opportunity. The Bradshaw Trails are part of an intricate trail system that covers a huge 65-mile area. These ATV trails exist in and around the very first road that was ever blazed in Riverside County, and is named after it's creator, William Bradshaw.
You will be rocking and rolling with your ATV on historic trails when you grab your ATV and ride over what was originally an overland stagecoach route. Think about the miners and passengers that passed through those lands while you tackle the roadway with your rugged ATV. Times have changed - thank goodness!
Most of the Bradshaw trail covers public lands that give amazing views of the neighboring mountains and the Palo Verde Valley. With your ATV revved up, there are plenty of hills and valleys to keep you challenged and excited
Plenty of hills and rugged terrain make this a trip that requires a few precautions for all ATV operators. Remember, your ATV is not a toy. That ATV is an expensive, and potentially dangerous machine. Rollovers and collisions are far too common, and can have dangerous consequences for the ATV riders. Because of this, it is important for even the most experienced riders to wear a helmet and eye protection. Protective clothing is recommended, too. Be sure to wear long heavy-duty pants, long sleeved shirts, and boots when you ride your ATV.
With 65 miles to cover, you may want to make this an ATV weekend or, at the very least, schedule a series of ATV trips to make sure that you will be able to take it all in. ATVers who like camping won't be disappointed with the offerings at the Bradshaw Trails, and being in this country setting will offer many opportunities to see the mountain wildlife.
