Peter Burns Road is a graded, hard-packed service road that provides access to the Walker Valley ORV Park and plenty of great off-road trails near Mount Vernon, Washington. The road is riddled with potholes and is often traveled by ATVs, UTVs, dirt bikes, and other full-size 4X4 vehicles. Keep an eye out for other drivers. The road once extended all the way to Lake Cavanaugh Road, but due to land disputes, it now ends in a 3.5-mile dead end at the south end of the ORV area. The staging area on the north end offers plenty of space for trucks and trailers.

Walker Valley ORV is comprised of 3,200 acres, with twelve 4X4 trails, and many more ATV and dirt bike trails. The trails offer many challenges like rocks, roots, and ruts. These obstacles will change from season to season, with the addition of snow and rain, which can also produce large puddles and muddy stretches. From the mild to wild, Walker Valley ORV provides something for everyone.
