Bundy
Hill Offroad Riding Park
Off-road ATV & SxS Riding
Area in Southern Michigan
Jerome, MI (12/19/2013) - Recently
we had a chance to stop at a new off-road park in
southeastern Michigan named Bundy Hill Offroad.
Located in Jerome, Michigan, Bundy Hill is the states’
newest riding park that is full of anything you
could ask for in an off road riding spot.
The area has been known as Bundy Hill for close
to a century, and it was named after its original
owner Mr. John Bundy. This spot became popular
in the 1920’s due to a large observation
tower that was erected to serve as a sightseeing
lookout for those passing by on US-12 to stop
and check out. Later on, Bundy Hill would become
known for a small zoo housing bears and monkeys
that would help lure travelers off of Chicago
Pike.

Hill Offroad park features a nice mix of
sandy & rocky terrain with plenty of
hill climbs and water crossings. Each trail
is marked with the level of difficulty |
Sixty years ago, the land was then purchased
for gravel mining by Bundy Hill Gravel Company
who eventually ran out of work to keep it operational.
In recent years, a proposal was presented to the
owner of the gravel company that would allow Bundy
Hill Off road to open its doors for ATV, SxS,
Motorcycle, and truck enthusiasts.

Bundy Hill features many different types of terrain which are all marked in order to help you pick how extreme you are willing to get on your visit. The first is level one or green. The trails usually consist of loose rock, dirt and sand with some exposed rock and are great for the beginner.

Bundy Hill Offroad Park offers 350 Acres of some of the best offroad riding that Michigan has to offer and is located just 30 minutes from Indiana, 45 Minutes from Ohio, & 1 hour from Detroit & Ann Arbor Michigan |
Level two or blue are trails that are a bit more rutted out, rocky and sandy. Water crossings are also present on this series of trails, but are typically around twelve inches deep.
