Barnwell Mountain Recreational Area, opened in 2000, is located in East Texas and offers 1,850 acres of motorized trails for dirt bikes, UTVs, and OHVs. There are 27+ miles of single track trails for dirt bikes and many more miles of challenging trails for UTVs and OHVs, including a 16-mile Adventure Trail. Barnwell Mountain has primitive campsites, electric campsites with hook-ups, and premium RV spaces with water and sewer hook-ups. The park also has six cabins and five bunkhouses available for nightly rentals. The trail system was developed and is maintained by all-volunteer TMTC members. The trails are mapped and rated with signage at the trail heads.
