The town of Kremmling, Colorado, is located in Grand County in the north-central region of the Centennial State. Located in a rugged, remote area of the state, the statuary town is surrounded by several wilderness areas, including Arapaho National Forest, Rocky Mountain National Park and the Steamboat Springs area, home to the Steamboat Mountain Resort. With such a vast expanse of rugged terrain, there is a wealth of off-road trails, particularly geared towards ATVs, in the Kremmling area.
Located south of Kremmling is the Dillon Ranger District of White River National Forest, which offers both summer and winter outdoor opportunities for off-roading enthusiasts. The district provides approximately 100 miles of off-road routes and trails, as well as 150 miles of trails for mountain bikers. The area also includes about 400 campsites. During the winter, eight snowmobile trails are open to the public. Off-roading trails range in experience level from beginner to more difficult, and a sampling of off-road trail highlights includes stunning views of several mountain reservoirs and the ruins of an old mining camp.
