I just found out that Lost Trails in the Poconos is closed. Anyone know what happened? It was our place to ride when the state trails are closed. I need a new spot in the Pocono area, any suggestions besides the state trails?

It is with a heavy heart to inform you that the

Lost Trails ATV Park has been shut down
EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY.

My family and I want to thank each and everyone of you for your support over these past 3 years.
We hope that for the short while that we were open You all felt you had a great place to enjoy ATVing.

Without going into any details, it is the landowner (Pocono Manor Resort) who forced the shut down.
Everyone else, the township, state agencies, local property owners and many of the business'
wanted and welcomed us. (Contrary to newspaper reports) We have been fighting this battle for over a year and
the resort has deeper pockets than us to carry on the fight.

We are planning on relocating on a larger parcel of land just 25 minutes from our old site with plans to be
open for the 2011 season. The location has more trails and even "Paved parking lots".
We will keep our website posted about this in the near future.

In the meantime, for those of you who ride "Sports Quads and Dirt bikes" we are opening a Practice Motocross Track.
Opening day is August 13, 2010
Sorry, no utility quads or trikes.

For more information on the Motocross Track visit the website Headquarters Moto Facility

Again , we want to thank everyone and we hope you feel we provided you with a good place to call home for your ATVing fun.

From my whole family,
Leslie, Chris, Craig and Jocelyn,
thank you.

Please help us get the word out by posting this on other forums.
We don't want people to be traveling to the park and find the gates are closed.
This happened over night and I am trying to get my website provider to post on our site ASAP



I got this off of theatvzone.com the owner of Lost Trails is a member of the site and this is his post.

Bummer... invite him over... we can help him spread the word for his new place...

That SUCKS!!!!!!! I loved that place. Was like the only private park to ride in eastern Pa.. I wish them luck with the new park and can't wait to ride there.

OH well. Another one down. The same thing happened to Paragon.

It didn't effect me because the place didn't permit three wheelers.

Sux losing your business that way (no matter how you run it).

I've never been there , but I'll try when they get the next park going just to show support to people that help us all enjoy the offroad sport .

Lost Trails was a good place to ride. Tony and his family are very good people. I hope he has success with his place he plans on opening.

always sad to hear of a riding place getting shut down
