Protect the sport you love. Do your part to keep Maine’s ATV trails open for generations to come:
- Stay on marked ATV trails. ATV trails have green and white signs. Remember, not all snowmobile trails are ATV trails.
- Respect closed trail signs.
- Never drink and ride.
- Drive to the right and at an appropriate speed.
- Tread lightly – Don’t tear up the trail!
- Remember that modified exhausts are illegal.
- Be respectful on ATV access routes – Yield to all traffic and never pass a vehicle.
- Be courteous to others when riding on multi-use trails.
- Help prevent wildlfires. Stay on marked trails. Avoid riding in dry vegetation. Discard smoking materials appropriately, and call 911 if you see a fire.
- Register your ATV. For every ATV registration purchased, over 2/3 of the fee goes directly into the trail maintenance fund.
- Support a local ATV club by donating your time and/or money.
We hope you have a safe, memorable weekend on Maine's ATV trails.
Help continue the tradition of public access to private land!
Many ATV trails in Maine exist thanks to the generousity of private landowners who allow access! Show your support and appreciation by becoming an Outdoor Partner and join the team of outdoor enthusiasts, landowners, and Maine Game Wardens who are dedicated to preserving Maine's legacy of access to private land. Without your support, the opportunities we have to enjoy Maine's beautiful outdoors could be lost forever.

Register your ATV
Registration fees fund trail maintenance and building new trails. Fees also support volunteer ATV clubs who provide critical work maintaining the trail systems, and private landowners who allow trail access. For every ATV registration purchased, over 2/3 of the fee goes directly into the trail maintenance fund.
All ATV registrations expire June 30.
Maine residents may renew an ATV registration online. New registrations must be done through a registration agent such as a town office or the MDIFW main office in Augusta.
Nonresidents may do both new and renewal ATV registrations online.
Beginning May 1st of each year, registrations will be valid from the date of issue through June 30 of the following year.
