Guide to Off Road Vehicles and Jeeping in Colorado

Off-highway vehicles (OHVs) are technically any vehicle that goes off the beaten. OHVs share a common characteristic of clearance and four-wheel drive. The most commonly known and seen in the backwoods of Colorado are Jeeps, followed up by Tacomas and other 4WD trucks and SUVs, and even select Subarus, such as the Forester.

You can go 4x4ing year-round in Colorado, but the unofficial season kicks off Memorial Day weekend. Jeep, ATVs, dirt bikes, and other 4x4s often share the road. Generally, the uphill driver has the right away when two vehicles meet on a narrow section of backcountry road.

Old mining roads make the perfect trail for your off-road vehicle. Explore Colorado’s forgotten towns and ruins by 4×4. Unguided Jeep rentals can be found around the state, as well as guided group tours. Rentals are usually available year-round, as the Jeeps do well in the snow. There are usually several Jeep models to choose from, including both 2 and 4-door, and hard and soft-top Wranglers.

For an outstanding and unforgettable adventure, head to Hinsdale County in the heart of the remote Rocky Mountains. Swing by Lake City Auto in the scenic San Juan Mountains for full and half-day rentals. Take the scenic Alpine Loop Scenic Byway over to Ouray and Silverton and back.

This season take a unique 4×4 adventure and uncover Colorado’s splendid backcountry. Most drivers must be 25 with a valid driver’s license, the same as renting a car.
