Raise dust through a landscape of wind-sculpted dunes and honeycombed sandstone: Mad Moose’s Trail Hero places you in Sand Hollow State Park where more than 50,000 acres of trails, red rocks and dunes create one of the country’s most varied off‑road playgrounds. The operator is based at the Sand Hollow trailhead, so you roll out without trailering and spend four days making loops across desert terrain.

What the day feels like

What four days on Trail Hero feels like

Across four days you’ll use the supplied UTV/ATV to stitch together loops through Sand Hollow’s varied terrain: open dune runs, tight red‑rock corridors and long desert approaches. The layout of the park and its scale let you tailor each day’s mileage and challenge while staying based at the trailhead.

Suitability

Who it's for

Who this rental suits — and who should rethink it.

1
Licensed solo driversSuitable for anyone 18 or older with a valid driver’s license who plans to drive the machine themselves.
2
Families with childrenPassengers of all ages are permitted, making the rental a fit for families — but if any passenger is under 18 the driver must be at least 25 years old.
3
Under‑18 driversNot a match — drivers must be at least 18 years old with a valid license.
4
Young drivers with minorsDrivers aged 18–24 should note restrictions: carrying passengers under 18 requires the driver to be 25 or older, which can limit plans for younger-holder drivers.
