Snake earns its​ name by winding back and forth, up and down, and through the picturesque woods of Hot Springs ORV Park. It is one of three Jeep "Badge of Honor" trails that can be wheeled here, and clocks in at 2.75 miles, making it the longest of the three. You can't miss taking a leisurely yet mildly challenging drive on this trail. From mild off-camber sections to hill climbs and descents, Snake is a great trail to initiate a new driver or new rig to off-roading.

This was a fun trail. I was able to do the entire thing with a mostly stock vehicle, with a small lift, but stock 30-inch tires. I did damage my plastic step on the passenger side somewhere. This trail was noticeably more difficult than all the other 2 diamond trails I did in my 4 hours here. Remembering to disengage and re-engage four-wheel drive helps a lot. Some of the turns are very sharp. I think this is supposed to be a one-way trail according to the signage, so keep that in mind. Overall it was fun.

Ran the trail a few weeks ago. Not bad, a bit more trees close to the trail than I like. But I would do it again.

Was the first trail of the day to get the group ready for the day. Trail is moderate and has alot of twist and turns it's a mix of forest and rocky trails. At waypoint 5 there is a rocky step area or a bypass around. If you want the challenge go to the left and climb the rocky shelfs just keep a good eye on you line and easy on the skinny pedal. All in all the trail offered some easy, mixed with moderate wheeling. Factory Jeep can make it with no problem!
