Welcome to Black Hills Outdoor Fun where ATV tours are our specialty! Most people like to ride atv's throughout the Black Hills National Forest but tend to not know the trails very well and spend most of the time looking at a map and missing out on the beauty of the surroundings. We offer a guided tour that is a 4 hour round trip which includes a short hike. You will have your own ATV or UTV to drive. Experience is needed when riding the ATV and none is needed to drive the UTV. Children under 4 are not able to ride due to the length of the tour and safety of the small children. Stay at one of our homes on Edelweiss Mountain and you will receive 20% off the tour. The tour is dusty at times, wet at times, and bumpy most of the time. Call for more details. We would love to have you enjoy the National Forest.
