Lake Lure UTV Tours

Lake Lure Outdoor offers self-drive and guided UTV tours on a roughly 60‑acre mountain course with rocky trails, obstacles, and scenic overlooks. Rentals include Kawasaki KRX1000 and Teryx vehicles; guided options are available for those who prefer to ride along.

Tours typically run at least one hour and accommodate ages 4+, with helmets and optional camera mounts available. The operation is seasonal (March–December); reservations are highly recommended and can be made online or by phone.

Expect a hands‑on, rugged off‑road experience on dirt tracks, climbs and small obstacles across wooded terrain and viewpoints.

Look out for:

• Scenic overlooks of Hickory Nut Gorge and Lake Lure.

• Short technical sections with rocks and tight turns.

• Vehicle options: Kawasaki KRX1000 (premium) and Teryx models.

• On-site add‑ons like phone holders ($8) and GoPro rentals ($30).

Best way to experience it: Book in advance, choose a guided ride if you want local route knowledge, or rent a KRX/Teryx to drive yourself with a passenger; arrive with closed‑toe shoes, layered clothing, and a charged phone if you plan to use a mount.

• Open seasonally (March–December); check current status before visiting.

• Advance reservations are highly recommended; online and phone booking available.

• Tours run at least one hour and accept riders aged 4 and up.

• Cameras allowed at owner’s risk; mounts and GoPro rentals offered on site.
