Coral Pink Sand Dunes Off Highway VehiclesThe Coral Pink Sand Dunes offers 2000 acres of sand, much of it for OHV play. There are hundreds of miles of trails and many are developed for 4-wheel vehicles. Off highway vehicles are allowed on the sand, but a section of sand near the boardwalk is only for non-motorized use. Off-Highway Trails - The Elephant Butte Trail starts 4 miles south of the park entrance and connects with the Barracks Trail. Both paths boast beautiful views. The Barracks Trail is exceptional and takes riders to see great views of Zion National park and the White Cliffs. Begin the Elephant Butte Trail 4 miles south of the Coral Pink Sand Dunes entrance. After traveling 8 miles, turn-off on the Barracks Trail. You can ignore this turn and follow the main Elephant Butte Trail returning the way you came or follow the Barracks Trail for 5.2 miles. These trails lead to remote areas. Be sure your off-terrain vehicle can safely make the trip. Lower tire pressures are recommended for the trail.Southwest ATV TrailsSand Highway - This one-way track is the most popular OHV track at the dunes.
