Gypsum City OHV Park

Gypsum City OHV Park in Fort Dodge is a massive 800-acre Webster County off-highway vehicle park. The county-park operating model and the destination-scale property footprint together define what the property delivers: serious OHV infrastructure backed by public investment and ongoing municipal management.

The track inventory is destination-grade. A 1.5-mile motocross track for experienced rider sessions. An amateur supercross track for technical-features programming. A 0.4-mile kids track that genuinely separates the youngest riders from main-track traffic. A beginner circle track for skill development. Plus a skills development course for structured technique work. That five-track inventory covers nearly every motocross development stage on a single property.

Add 60 miles of trails ranging from open novice prairie to advanced timbered terrain with water crossings and mudding areas. The trail network is the cross-discipline footprint that makes the property usable as a destination weekend rather than just a motocross day-trip. Mixed-skill family groups and cross-discipline riders running both bikes and ATVs can all use the same admission.

Operating window is year-round, sunrise to sunset, seven days a week. The unrestricted access window is unusual for OHV parks and reflects the county-managed operating model. Dispersed camping is permitted across the broader property footprint.

For local riders in Webster County and the broader north-central Iowa region, Gypsum City is the destination OHV property. Riders in Fort Dodge, Webster City, Humboldt, Eagle Grove, and the broader Highway 20 / US-169 corridor have everyday geographic access. Des Moines metro riders make the trip north for the destination scale. Sioux City and broader western Iowa riders run east for the trail network specifically.
