Little Sahara State Park ORV Areas

Little Sahara Dunes
Little Sahara DunesLittle Sahara State Park offers the perfect "oasis" for off-road vehicle enthusiasts with 1,450 acres of rideable sand dunes ranging in height from 25 to 75 feet. Each year nearly 100,000 off-road vehicle enthusiasts visit the park.

There is an area of flat sand for those sand-draggin' times, as well as a special trail that encompasses the area offering plenty of scenic views. In fact, this area has some locations with cottonwood groves and trails branching out through them. As with any sand area, in the heat of the summer it is best to stay clear because it gets too hot.

But how do you see this magnificence and experience the excitement if you don't have a dune buggie? No Problem! Little Sahara offers dune rides! These dune rides include a little bit about the flora and fauna of the area as well as a great ride around, up and over and through the dunes!

Check in at the park Office and get the current schedule and price.

Little Sahara State Park Camping

Little Sahara Camping
Little Sahara State Park offers 139 non-assigned campsites in two campgrounds with comfort stations and showers; 42 semi-modern RV sites (electrical and water) with a dump site; 97 unimproved sites throughout the two campgrounds.

Picnicking - The park also offers three reservable picnic shelters seating up to 80 people. A day use area is open year round with grills, tables, water, and modern comfort stations.

The state's largest dune area with 1,450 acres of rideable sand dunes ranging in height from 25 to 75 feet, is open 24 hours a day, 365 days a year for off-road excitement.
