DIXIE RUN - A Southern Legacy
For three straight decades now Dixie Run has been the premiere event for family friendly off road trail riding fun in south. Trail riding is what its all about, and over the years there has been a lot of it. Originally located in the Tellico OHV Area, around the border of North Carolina and Tennessee high up on the ridges is where it all began.
Now over 30 + years later Dixie Run continues to be a premier trail riding event in the Southeast. Many of Southerns Clubs and Individual Members helped to develop the trail system at our venue within GMP just like at Tellico. Over these years thousands upon thousands have come out to ride the challenging and scenic trails offered.
For our 35th event we head to Windrock Park and we have a lot to be excited about. With 73,000 acres of land and over 300 miles of trails...it’s time to play! Their trails accommodate all types of vehicles from ATVs, SxSs, dirt bikes, mountain bikes, Jeeps/4x4s, buggies and trucks. They are the LARGEST privately owned riding area in the country.
As SFWDA has broadened it’s reach more to stock and novice enthusiasts we continue to offer excursion rides as part of our events. These scenic rally / excursion style wheeling trips are guided ventures through nearby back roads while we explore as a group the beautiful state parks, overlooks, back road trails, and maybe even a few big waterfalls. This not only provides a way for everyone including stock rigs to participate it also helps alleviate congestion on off road trails system. These trips typically leave in the morning and allow time to return back to base camp in time for dinner.
Whether you have been with Southern since inception or you are just now learning about us, come join us at a Dixie Run event one time and I'm sure you will be back year after year.
