New Mexico is a state that is home to a large diversity in both it's culture and land, and this is one of the things that makes it such a great place for ATV trails.

Riding in New Mexico gives you a level of freedom and choice that many other states simply can't beat. Whether you want to romp through some tough and rocky terrain on your ATV, ride through a nice forest, or try out your new set of sand tires, New Mexico has something for you. The state has great ATV opportunities for beginners and experienced riders alike, so if you are a beginning ATV enthusiast, don't worry because you'll have plenty of places to ride.
In order to ride your ATV in New Mexico, you must have it registered with the state's Motor Vehicle Registration Agency. There will most likely be a fee for this, and the fee varies depending on what county you get it in, but generally the fee is rather small and inexpensive. Like in most states, you cannot ride your ATV on paved roads, unless you are crossing a highway or other road in order to get to another part of a trail. Any other on road riding is heavily prohibited, and could result in a fine. Make New Mexico one of your next ATVing destinations and get ready to have a blast riding your ATV in New Mexico.
