Joseph to Richfield OHV Trail - Sevier CO Utah

The trail from Joseph to Richfield is one of many side trails of the beautiful Paiute Trail System. We rode for 2.5 hours at approximately 15 mph.

This area is known for its well maintained trails and rustic scenery. Be sure to make time to stop at Fremont Indian State Park, the home of 3,000 rock art panels!

Joseph is a quaint town with just about everything you’d need to set off on an offroad adventure. With the Flying U Country Store, you have quick access to all the supplies you and scrumptious food.

This is short half day ride, leaving plenty of time to stop and explore the area.

Would you like to see the trail in an animated 3D flyover map? If it appears to pause, that is likely a place I stopped for a while. It will continue, just wait a few moments. Link to 3D flyover.

Here is the 360 view at the trailhead. Feel free to tour around a bit inside Google Street Views. We have recorded the trail in 360 and it is now part of Google Street Views so you can take a virtual tour of the trail to see if it is for you. We’ve made it a bit easier to navigate, scroll down and you will see more 360 embedded tours as we encounter intersections, trail markers or interesting places along the trail.

On any image, you can click the ‘X’ in the upper right corner and the view will change to an overview map showing the Google Street View blue lines. You can click anywhere on that blue line and drop down to the 360 ground-level views at that point.
