Taking an ATV-UTV tour is a great way to see scenery and have fun too. Riding with a guide who knows where to go can make the experience even better.

We cater to whatever style of riding you want—from winding small back roads through scenic villages, Markets and countryside to relaxing nature rides along local rivers, castles to some of the greatest sites in the area!  

ATVs: Each person must complete the ATV online safety course which takes about 2.5 hours, and have a valid USAREUR license. Outdoor Recreation will assist you with the online course requirements.

All driving will be done on hard top roads. No off road during ride. UTV Drivers are not required to take safety courseEnjoy the great Outdoors with Baumholder Outdoor Recreation, ign up today
