Off road parks offer a variety of off road driving experiences, typically from beginner to expert. They are a great way to learn the capabilities of your vehicle in a more controlled environment and can offer more challenging terrain that could otherwise be difficult to find in Texas. Some parks only allow SxS, ATV and motorcycles while some also allow highway legal and OHV vehicles. Check first before visiting any of the off road parks on this list.

Wolf Caves, LLC Off Road Park – offering offroad and rock crawling trails, Wolf Caves is a premier 4×4 destination in Mason, TX. At 430 acres it’s one of the smaller off road parks in Texas but the intense rock crawling terrain makes up for what it lacks in size. You will find unthinkable rock crawling trails and features that (for instance) require rear steering capabilities. Be warned, if you don’t have a 4″ lift and 35″ tires you will likely struggle on most trails. Wolf Caves also offers camping and RV sites, a bathhouse, group pavilion and gift shop. No UTVs, side-by-sides, motorcycles or 4 wheelers. Address: 7966 US-377, Mason, TX 76856 | Wolf Caves Off Road Park Review |

Northwest OHV Park – the best and closest offroad park for Dallas-Fort Worth, Texas, Northwest OHV provides a wide range of trail types . Spread partly over an old quarry and surrounding hills, offroad vehicles of all types can find something to enjoy. Beware, when it rains this place gets muddy in a hurry and the trails get slick. The mud sticks around for a while due to a lack of drainage. While Northwest OHV has many fun trails that will challenge and entertain, it lacks many of the modern amenities found at other Texas off road parks. The group pavilion is closed (it’s literally falling off a cliff), there is no bathhouse or camping or RV sites and no gift shop. They do allow 4x4s, UTVs, side-by-sides and mountain bikes, but no motorcycles. Requires a Texas OHV sticker and tickets to be purchased online (as of 2021).
