Road Use, Registration, and Permits

Public-road use

ATVs and UTVs may use public roads only where operation is authorized, such as a signed ATV route, or where another specific legal exception applies. A road being near a trail does not by itself make it an ATV route.

Registration and OHV permits

Wisconsin requires eligible ATVs and UTVs operated on public riding areas to be registered unless an exemption applies. Qualifying nonresidents generally need a nonresident trail pass; riders should use the DNR registration page to determine the credential that applies to their vehicle and residency.

Scope: This summary covers Wisconsin DNR statewide route and registration guidance, not every local ordinance, highway segment, trail, or vehicle-equipment rule.
