ALL TRAILS ARE CLOSED

Posted on

The spring thaw is upon us, and effective immediately ALL NATION VALLEY ATV CLUB TRAILS ARE CLOSED until further notice.

Please respect the law, our land owners and our volunteers by staying off closed trails.  Damage caused during the spring thaw is often not repairable and can lead to loss of trails.  Anyone caught riding closed trails will be charged with trespassing.

Trails are expected to open again mid-May, but ultimately the weather will be the determining factor.  With an early spring we’re hoping we can open the trails early as well.  Please check back for updates.

Trail conditions have improved and volunteers have been busy. As a result, all trails are once again open.

TRAILS ARE OPEN

Posted on

Trails open May 31st as scheduled. We have 2 trails that will need to remain closed for a bit longer to dry-up and avoid permanent irreparable damage. 1. Boscell’s trail (the trail between Cameron Road & Nelson Road) must remain closed, detour in place. The trail into Ben’s Pioneer in Winchester will need to remain closed, so parking at the Country Kitchen will not be available at this time (alternate parking available at the Township of North Dundas parking lot 636 St. Lawrence Street https://goo.gl/maps/xuicvoCqdi8tKiRH7). Please use caution out on the trails and respect the temporary closures of the two sections.

Trails Closed for Hunting

Posted on

All NVATVC trails are closed for two weeks for white-tailed deer hunting. Trails will open again on November 19. NVATVC maintains relationships with many private land owners who make our trail system possible. Many of them hunt their property during these two weeks. Please respect our land owners and your safety by observing trail closures during these two weeks. Thank you!

NVATVC Trails are Open
Let the good times roll. Trails are open again for the winter season.  Be safe! Volunteers will be around the loop this weekend to inspect for hazards (downed trees bridges that require attention), so tread lightly and be cautious.

NOTE* – Pym Trail and Boscell Trail remain closed until further notice, but all other trails are open.

Reminder: Trails will be closed Nov 6-19th – DEER SEASON

Posted on

Nation Valley ATV Club’s trails will be closed as usual for the 2 weeks of deer season. Trails are closed from November 6th – November 19th.  NVATVC’s trails span many private landowner’s properties who graciously allow us to use their property for most of the year, so please respect their time using their own property for the 2 weeks of deer season by remaining off of the trails.

Trails to Open May 27

Posted on

It’s been a long, wet spring but we’re finally able to announce that trails will open on Saturday May 27!

Some areas are still wet. Please do your best to avoid damaging these areas, and watch for deep water.  Volunteers will be out taking the signs down and clearing any fallen trees on Saturday.

Update to Trail Closure

Posted on

Due to the large amount of rainfall we will not be opening the trails in the next couple of weeks. Opening the trails in these wet conditions causes irreparable damage. We will monitor the conditions of the trails and will post any updates as soon as we have them.
