New River ATV’s New River Gorge Side by Side Tours are geared towards getting families out on the trail together! Take the kids out for a ride and see why UTVs are all the rage!

All operators must be 25+ with a valid US driver’s license. All passengers must be 8+ with a parent or guardian present. Rates are per machine. Machines seat up to 4 people.

If all goes well, you’ll be departing for your trip about 30 minutes after arriving. For the next 2 hours, give or take, you’ll be out on the trail with your guide exploring the hills and hollers of Wild and Wonderful West Virginia!

New River Gorge
Ride with the Guide Tour

Without a doubt, this is all our staff’s favorite trip! No one knows our trails like our guides. They do hundreds of tours every year. They know every rock, rut, and hazard. If you really want to step it up a few notches, this is the trip for you! Let one of our professional guides take the wheel and really show you what our machines can do! You’ll get to see trails we don’t take on our regular, commercial trips. If you want to know what we do on Friday nights once our guests go home – this is it! Why not just join us?

All passengers must be 8+ with a parent or guardian present. Rates are per machine. Machines seat up to 3 people in addition to the guide.
