Adventure Mountain Resort Off Road Tours, Barnardsville

About Adventure Mountain Resort Off Road Tours

Adventure Mountain Resort offers off-road tours across 220 acres of rugged Appalachian terrain in Barnardsville, North Carolina, about 20 minutes north of Asheville. Visitors drive Can-Am Maverick X3 Turbo side-by-side vehicles on seven mapped miles of trails that cover 1,400 feet of elevation gain. The property features ridgeline trails with panoramic views, creekside paths, wooded climbs, and rock and log obstacles. Tours teach real off-road driving skills rather than emphasizing speed, focusing on vehicle handling, obstacle navigation, steep descents, terrain reading, and understanding vehicle capabilities like traction and lateral stability. New drivers start in a training area to build comfort with controls before tackling technical trails with sharp switchbacks and challenging grades. The landscape includes views of the Blue Ridge Mountains, Balsam Range, Mount Mitchell, and the Great Smoky Mountains. The property reflects its historic use for homesteading, farming, and tree harvesting. Tours suit both beginners and experienced drivers seeking guided mountain adventures.
