Wear Proper Equipment

Using personal protective equipment is always a must when riding a UTV. Wear proper UTV safety gear, including a Department of Transportation compliant helmet. Inspect the UTV before riding. Your safety is important, and protecting yourself from head to toe helps make it easier to stay safe while riding.

Ride on Designated Trails

Rent a UTV to cruise around Gatlinburg with family, friends, and pets. You will receive a map that directs you to many magnificent spots in the Great Smoky Mountains. You have the freedom to choose where to go, but remember that our UTVs are not meant for off-road use. They must remain on streets to stay safe for humans and animals alike.

Stay Within the Speed Limit

UTVs make trips more exciting as you feel the wind in your hair and get a front row view of beautiful landscapes. We encourage you to bask in the view, but please stay within recommended speed limits. With UTVs, you have more time to observe the surroundings because of the open design. Even when the road seems clear, respect the speed limit and be on the lookout for animals crossing your path.

Avoid Driving When You’re Tired

Maneuvering a UTV is similar to driving a car. Your eyes should be on the road, and you need to have a fast response time. Avoid being the driver when you’re tired or take breaks to stay alert. Try to bring someone along when you explore Gatlinburg, so someone can call for help if you encounter a dangerous situation.
