Coal Creek Mining and Manufacturing Company

A company? Where’s the ATV trail? We can hear you asking already. Anyway, it’s not a company but it’s really a vast ATV trail that is really going to rock your socks off! if you’re an ATV enthusiast lusting for an ATV trail that is open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and 365 days a year, this is it, folks! The one ATV trail that’s really got us raring to go all the time. The Coal Creek Mining and Manufacturing Company is located in Oliver Springs, Tennessee with it’s over 72,000 acres of landscape ready for you to ride your ATV on. With so much space to ride on this ATV trail, you will definitely come back more than once.

At the point of this article, the Coal Creek Mining and Manufacturing Company ATV trail is at its infancy stage, therefore, it’s a good time to explore the trail. The management of this ATV trail decided to team up with a local ATV club, namely Windrock ATV Club which is a large ATV club in Tennessee to manage and maintain this ATV trail.

We went in a huge group, hence, were hoping that there was enough space for all of us – thankfully, there was. Don’t worry about space and parking at this ATV trail because there’s plenty of space to accommodate large groups of people. And this ATV trail is best when you ride with as many friends and family as you can find! Although it isn’t a five-star hotel, camping there is completely free. The only downside is that there aren’t any toilets there and there are no electrical outlets yet. Drinkers would, also, have to take their drinks elsewhere; the same goes for bonfire lovers. Now, it may sound a little too much of nature to you but for us, it was absolutely fun because we had pre-charged battery operated stuff with us, so, you might want to consider doing the same. There’s nothing to be done about the lack of toilets though.

For those who are not too keen to get so very close to nature, you can make your way to Oak Ridge where you’ll find all sorts of basic amenities, including motels, restaurants, bars, convenience stores and even stores selling ATV parts and ATVs. Oak Ridge is only about 4 miles away.

What we love about this ATV trail is that there aren’t that many rules to follow. If you’ve been on as many trails as we have, you’ll know that most ATV trails have so many rules to follow that it makes, sometimes, having fun a little hard. This is not the case with Coal Creek Mining and Manufacturing Company. Just wear the appropriate riding gear at all times, stay on marked trails, climb hills only in areas they say you can, keep the guns at home and last but not least, maintain the cleanliness of the ATV trail.

This is the kind of ATV trail suitable for people with different riding skills, irregardless of whether you’re a beginner ATV rider or an expert, you can expect some fun here. They have wooded trails, creek crossings, mud holes and hills made for all types of vehicles including ATVs. If you want to take pictures, there’s plenty of jaw-dropping scenery too! see? Didn’t we say it would be great fun? In fact, for those who are looking for a bit of a challenge, you can try out a trail designed for hard cores. This part of the ATV trail is suitable for any 4-wheeler; there’s another special single track made for bikes too.

Coal Creek ATV have only recently opened its doors to ATV enthusiasts, that’s why it isn’t as well-developed as other ATV trails but we promise you that there’s tons to do there. To get to Coal Creek ATV trail, take the highway 62 from Oliver Springs and three miles northwards along Windrock Road. The ATV trail is about 15 miles, approximately, west-northwest from Knoxville. To ride on this ATV trail, it’ll only cost you $10 per day and if you are interested in coming back for more (which we think you will), just pay their yearly fee of $50 per person.
