Ride the Kiamichi Mountains. Camp Billy Creek. Explore the Ouachitas.
A two-, three-day, or extended overland adventure built around Polaris UTVs, HIKER trailers, mountain routes, fuel stops, backcountry camping, and real destination riding.
THE ROUTE
Hochatown → Bethel → Honobia → Talihina → Big Cedar / Billy Creek
This is a mapped overland route, not just a basic UTV rental. Riders leave Hochatown, head north on 259 through Bethel, cross the mountain into Honobia, then cross the next mountain into Talihina. From there, the route works back toward Big Cedar and Billy Creek for camping and trail exploration.
2 days | 3 days | Custom extended trips | Polaris UTVs | HIKER trailers
2–3+ Days of Riding
Built to be flexible: quick overnight, full three-day explorer, or extended backcountry adventure.
Billy Creek Basecamp
Camp at Billy Creek, choose nearby Big Cedar RV parks, or use a more secluded setup in the woods north of the highway. Billy Creek gives the trip a real overnight adventure feel with creek access, forest roads, and nearby trail systems.
Trail Terrain
Once you get into the riding area, the terrain ranges from smooth forest roads to rougher trails with rocks, ruts, mud, creek crossings, and elevation changes. Routes can be adjusted by experience level and weather.
