(If you are unsure of the road's management you can check it here: https://services.cbrm.ns.ca/WhoPlowsMyRoad.aspx

🚨 OHV riders: know before you go 🚨

Heading out on an off-highway vehicle (OHV)? Make sure you have the right permission before you ride.

Private land: Get written permission from the landowner first. Riding without it can mean fines of up to $985. Some OHV associations have agreements in place for their members, so check with your local club before you go.

Trails and protected public land: Some associations have agreements that allow OHV use in specific designated wilderness areas. Riders must be current members of the applicable association or have a valid trail pass. Without it, fines can reach up to $1,500.

✅ Get permission before riding on private land

✅ Stick to authorized trails

✅ Carry and display your membership or trail pass

✅ Respect landowners, trails and protected areas

Ride responsibly and help protect Nova Scotia’s natural spaces for everyone to enjoy.
