Rider rules (the short version)

Registration / trail pass. Wisconsin machines need a Wisconsin ATV/UTV registration. Out-of-state machines need a nonresident trail pass: $35 for the year (it expires March 31) or $20 for 5 consecutive days. Buy one online at Go Wild or from a DNR sales agent.
Safety certificate. If you were born on or after Jan. 1, 1988, you need an ATV safety certificate: at 12 or older to drive an ATV, and at 16 or older to drive a UTV, on public trails, routes and frozen waters. Carry the certificate with you. DNR safety education
Helmets, eyes & belts. Riders under 18 must wear a DOT-approved helmet; we recommend one for everyone. You need eye protection if there's no windshield, and everyone in a UTV wears a seat belt. Kids under 12 may not drive on a roadway, even to cross.
Road-route etiquette. Ride only on signed routes and trails, never go around a closed gate, and stay off private land unless it's marked as a trail. Keep right, ride single file, and stay at or under the posted limit. Slow down in town and near homes. Courteous riders keep routes open for everyone.
