Corral Hollow OHV Trail

Corral Hollow OHV Trail, marked by segments 7N11, 7N88Y, and 17EV485, offers a scenic and engaging straight-through run off Highway 4 near Liberty Vista Point. The route starts at roughly 6,853 feet and steadily climbs to just over 8,160 feet before winding back down to its end at Highway 4 just six miles north of where it started. This trail favors the adventurous spirit, providing a blend of rugged forest stretches, open ridgelines, and occasional rocky terrain that keeps the drive interesting without being overly technical.

The majority of Corral Hollow OHV Trail is rough dirt, punctuated by embedded rock and shallow ruts. However, the final mile at the northern end, just before arriving back at Highway 4, presents larger boulders that demand low-range gearing, careful tire placement, and some driver finesse. High-clearance four-wheel-drive vehicles are recommended, and while the majority of the trail is approachable for casual off-roaders, moderate experience is suggested for navigating the rockier northern section.

This trail draws a wide range of OHV users as it is open to off-highway vehicles and highway-legal vehicles alike. Full-size or long-wheelbase vehicles beware, this trail does wind through tight pine trees at times, which could cause fender or side damage.

Camping spots are relatively frequent and generally easy to identify in clearings among the trees or on flatter, open areas. During summer weekends, the area sees increased visitor traffic as nearby campgrounds fill and families, groups, and day travelers explore the trail. Snow and seasonal closures typically render the route inaccessible in winter, at which point it becomes a playground for snowmobilers and cross-country skiers.

Trailhead signage marks both ends of Corral Hollow OHV Trail, signaling the start of a rewarding drive that combines forest quiet, open vistas, and just enough challenge to keep things memorable.
