Utah Division of Outdoor Recreation
Outdoor recreation is a cornerstone of Utah’s economy, generating over $9.5 billion annually, supporting 72,000 jobs, and fueling the state’s thriving tourism industry. It also contributes $737 million in state and local tax revenue while providing $4.3 billion in wages and salaries.
Recognizing the growing importance of outdoor recreation to Utah’s economy and quality of life, the Utah State Legislature established the Utah Division of Outdoor Recreation in 2022. As part of the Utah Department of Natural Resources, the division unites the nation’s first Office of Outdoor Recreation with key state programs, including Utah’s Boating Program, Off-Highway Vehicle (OHV) Program, and outdoor recreation grants and planning. We also work collaboratively with DNR's Division of Law Enforcement Rangers. Dedicated to fostering a healthy and active lifestyle for all Utahns, the Utah Division of Outdoor Recreation focuses on four key areas: expanding recreational access, promoting safety and education, ensuring responsible stewardship and sustainable visitation, and driving economic growth through outdoor recreation.
OHV Recreation Grant - Education
Utah takes great pride in its extensive off-highway vehicle (OHV) trail system, spanning over 80,000 miles and covering various trail networks throughout the state. This remarkable achievement is made possible through collaboration with city, county, nonprofit, state, and federal partners. Among these vast trails, approximately 1,200 miles are groomed complexes, forming Utah’s 17 snowmobile complexes. To support the growth and maintenance of the OHV program, an annual allocation of $3.5 million from OHV registration funds is designated to the Division of Outdoor Recreation (DOR) OHV Program.
OHV education in Utah serves as a crucial tool for safer, more responsible OHV recreation while also benefiting the state in numerous ways. By instilling a culture of safety, courtesy, and resource conservation, projects can help reduce accidents and injuries. This culture also contributes to local economies by attracting responsible OHV enthusiasts who support regional businesses. Additionally, these projects ensure compliance with OHV regulations, collect valuable data for resource management, and engage youth in outdoor activities, fostering a lasting appreciation for Utah's public lands.
Funds may be allocated to the development and dissemination of publications and the operation of educational programs that promote safety, courtesy, and resource conservation related to OHV trails. This includes non-law enforcement trail safety and trail-use monitoring patrol programs.
