Top ATV Rentals on the Minnesota Iron Range

In northern Minnesota, the landscape tells two stories. One of industrial heritage where massive machines once extracted iron ore to build a nation. The other of nature’s resilience, where former mine lands have transformed into some of the most unique off-road terrain in the Midwest. Rocky outcroppings, steep climbs, and winding forest trails create an ATV paradise that draws riders from across the country.

The best part? You don’t need to haul your own ATV or side-by-side to experience these legendary trails. Rent a well-maintained ATV and access hundreds of miles of linked Iron Range trails.
