To Withlacoochee the drive is 60 minutes from my location.
I could also use some nearby locations, but they're not absolutely "legal." I tend to stay away from them even though they're less than 10 minutes from my house.

I'm about an hour from some real solid local wheeling. I've spent many a day there discovering new trails. There are tons of closer spots but you'll get four hours out of them...tops.
Beyond that, I'm roughy two hours from Rausch Creek. I have yet to get out there though.

20 minutes south west to the closest ohv area. Then there are 2 more about 30 minutes south east and north east. Then there is Moab 2-1/2 to 3 hrs south. Utah is great for wheeling

Typically 1.5 to 5.5 hours. There are a couple areas closer, but they dont offer much of a challenge.
I have driven days to go wheeling before as well, but the trip wasnt solely for wheeling (though that was the main reason for the trip)

3.5 hrs for me, then it's all the free wheeling you can handle. days worth, even weeks worth.
we have thousands of kilometers of snowmobile trails we get to use for free in the summer. days and days of wheeling without running the same trail twice.
