Ride Royal Blue ATV Resort
Ride Royal Blue ATV Resort in Campbell County, Tennessee, operates as a dedicated basecamp for one of the most extensive publicly accessible OHV networks in the eastern United States: the North Cumberland Wildlife Management Area, a 200,000+ acre state-managed tract split between the Royal Blue and Sundquist units, holding 600 to 900 miles of riding trails across the upper Cumberland Plateau's rugged terrain. The resort itself covers 150 private acres and functions as the infrastructure layer (lodging, supplies, and rental machines), for trail access that is actually permitted on state WMA land, requiring a separate Tennessee TWRA High Impact Habitat Conservation Permit. The WMA trail network is not manicured trail park terrain: the Royal Blue and Sundquist units are working wildlife management land with rough forest roads, undeveloped creek crossings, and the genuine backcountry character of 200,000 uncrowded acres in coal-country Tennessee. The resort side of the operation is well-developed: 100+ RV sites, 60 cabin configurations from primitive to full-amenity, bathhouses, a general store for fuel and supplies, a restaurant, and a Polaris Adventures fleet for rental machines. The combination of developed resort infrastructure and genuine WMA backcountry scale makes Ride Royal Blue one of the most complete multi-day OHV destinations in the state (423-784-9445).
