After you pull past the big Badlands sign at the road, you’ll head down the lane approximately 1/4 of a mile.  Everyone that needs a ride band will turn right into the lot and pull into the lanes on the left hand side.  This is temporary registration parking.  Please do not unload, air down, attach flags, etc.  Everyone will exit the vehicle (including children and non riders) and enter the Badlands Pro Shop to register.  Everyone 18 years and older will need to bring a LEGAL ID with them.  Everyone will need a Badlands wristband.  Once you are registered, you will return to your vehicle and pull to the entrance gate where a staff member will verify your band and explain where to park.

You can be any age to enter and ride at The Badlands. We encourage drivers to follow the age restrictions for their specific vehicle/machine.

No. Buggies and sand rails are not allowed in our park. A sand rail is defined as a machine powered by a car motor that is not a car, i.e. a tubular roll cage with a VW motor is not allowed. We do allow small carts such as Honda Odysseys, Pilots, Carter Go Karts and similar karts. Flags and helmets required.

Helmets are required for all drivers and riders of ATVs and Bikes. Helmets are also required for Minors (under the age of 18) driving or riding in a Side x Side (this is State law). Helmets are not required if you are driving or riding in a street-like vehicle, i.e. SUVs or if you are 18 or older in a Side x Side.

Orange Flags are required for all machines and vehicles except dirt bikes. Flags must fly 2 feet higher than the highest point of your machine and with ATVs, 2 feet higher than the person while standing on the foot pegs.
