Veterans Off Road Day

In honor of Armed Forces Day, the park entry fee at Holly Oaks ORV Park will be waived from 11 a.m.- 4 p.m. Saturday, May 20 for all veterans and active duty military. Participants can experience the thrill of off-roading with rides provided by experienced volunteers or they are welcome to bring their own ORV (ORV license and trail permit required) during Veterans Off Road Day.

This event will serve as the kick-off to the 2023 season at Holly Oaks ORV Park. In addition to the riding opportunities, there will be a food truck, music, veterans service organizations and more.

Holly Oaks ORV Park is marking its third full season this year. ORV enthusiasts are sure to notice some new features at the park, including a youth riding area.

The park is open to all types of ORVs, including full-size vehicles, side-by-sides, all-terrain vehicles or ATVs and motorcycles. Consisting of former and active sand and gravel mines, it is located off I-75 (at Grange Hall) and Dixie Highway near Groveland Oaks County Park and Campground. The unique terrain includes 4x4 trails, single-track trails, steep hills, water crossings, rock crawls and a “scramble area” in which riders can make their own paths.
