Kentucky’s First Frontier Appalachian Trails System is set to create the regional ATV trail system it has long been overdue.

Kentucky is well underway with its newly formed, long discussed ATV, OHV, and Motorcycle Trail System spanning across most of its southeastern mountains. Making its rounds through Kentucky’s House, Senate, and across Governor Beshear’s desk as the Kentucky Mountain Regional Recreation Authority, the now official First Frontier Appalachian Trails System is set to work across counties, towns, and communities throughout our mountains to survey, establish, and build a connecting trail system. Much like Virginia’s relatively young Spearhead Trails (officially the Southwest Regional Recreation Authority), and the well-established Hatfield-McCoy Trails system in West Virginia, Kentucky will be formally recognizing its decades-old and very enthusiastic OHV community.

Ride Moonshine Country wants to welcome those involved in First Frontier and hopes our ATV community will also help support these exciting developments. If we all work together everyone in our mountain communities will mutually benefit.

In the mean time, here is a list of pages and information for the already established offroad offerings found throughout southeastern Kentucky. This list will continue to grow as more information becomes available, but is a solid start of what you can expect from our area trails.
