Happily Walters Falls Tract has been declared dry enough and safe enough to ride.
There is a fallen tree at the lower east access but the upper access (top of hill) is clear.
Side-by-sides are welcome and the tract is great for family riding. Some of the trails are narrow and require some skill.
Picnic and portapotty facilities available courtesy of the club. Please take care of this equipment, as members, we own it!
Ride with care.

9:00am Registration / 10:00am Ride
Staging from DGATV’s Dundalk parking area (located off Grey St. on the west side of Dundalk. The field is alongside the C.P Trail at the corner of Grey and Proton Streets; between Dundalk St. and Proton St.), we will be checking out the newly marked side-by-side by-pass trail as well as some favourite sites. We’ll ride an easy mix of public and private properties including road running.
Members and non-members; ATV and side-by-side riders are welcome.
Bring your lunch and some cash. As with any ride, it is advised to dress appropriately and have extra fuel, drinking water, snack, drinks, rain gear, bug spray, basic repair tools, bandaids, compass, map and cell phone on hand. Note that there may not be cell service in the area. (New Riders)
Annual permits ($150) and day passes ($20) will be available for purchase. (Membership Info)
Also DGATV/ Firefighter raffle tickets ($5 each) and 50/50 tickets will be for sale.
Ride participants will be asked to make a donation to charity. Proceeds will be directed to Dundalk Public School’s Breakfast Club, helping to ensure that students start their day with a healthy breakfast. Last year proceeds from this ride resulted in $620 going to the Beavercrest Community School.
Come Ride With Us!

Dufferin Grey ATV Club (DGATV) welcomes side-by-sides riders as members and on the trail.
To-date, our local counties have not authorized side-by-sides on county properties. Grey County is undertaking a Recreational Trails Master Plan to help manage the trails and plan for the future — the report is due any day now. The rail trail and county forests will be addressed in that plan.
Whether or not Grey County allows side-by-sides on the trail (or ATVs for that matter), it is expected that Dufferin County will follow suit.
In the meantime, DGATV’s volunteers have marked a by-pass trail so that side-by-sides (up to 65″) can travel without going on the rail trail. The by-pass signs have a blue streak across either the top or bottom as shown:
Parking is available in Dundalk and Markdale.
So now it’s official — Side-by-side Riders, Come Ride With Us!
