Oscoda is the eastern gateway to northern Michigan’s ATV and snowmobile trail system linking you to all points north. Numerous trailheads and access points offer plenty of opportunity to get out and enjoy the trails. 

Our ATV & snowmobile trails connect to an expansive trail network beginning right into the heart of Downtown Oscoda. During the warm weather months, you can ride throughout the Huron National Forest and beyond. It doesn’t stop during the winter either, the network of snowmobile trail connects you west to Houghton Lake and Traverse City, and north to the Bridge. 

Oscoda is the eastern gateway to northern Michigan’s snowmobile trail system providing access to trails that cross the state leading to Traverse City or northward toward the Upper Peninsula.

Begin at the Grass Lake Road staging area, just south of River Road. The first stopping point is Foote Site Village, 6.5 miles west of the trailhead, there riders will find food, beverages and fuel.

From here the trail riders head north via Rea Road across the AuSable River or connect with the Alcona County Trail system.

Doubling as a snowmobile trail in winter, the Huron East ORV Trail is an out and back trail system spanning 45.4 miles. Four trailheads provide access at numerous points on the trail.

This trail also connects with the Huron-Sand Lake Spur going south or or the Old State House Route going north.
