Backcountry Moto Experience
With over 2 million acres of public land, the Pennsylvania wilds is one of the best outdoor recreation destinations in North America. The region, rich in history and culture, includes many state parks and forests, abundant wildlife, some of the darkest skies in the country, and the largest elk herd in the northeast.
We have selected a 500 mile route on mostly easy dirt roads, following a track known as Backcountry Discovery Routes’ BDR-X. If you have never ridden a BDR, this will give you a taste of what these adventures are all about!
This 4 day adventure consists of 2 experienced guides, 1 night hotel lodging (double occupancy) and 3 nights camping. All meals and lodging are included. Our support vehicle will meet us each night to help create our catered meals and memorable camaraderie by the fire!
Each trip is limited to 6 riders plus 2 guides.
Don't have camping gear? - we can help!
