Hey from what I have heard it has both. Light trails all the way up to trails that only rock crawlers can make it thru. I haven't been up there yet but want to get up there really bad. Contact Hulkgreen. He went up there not to long ago. Hope that helps ya out.

You are talking about SuperLift. This is our local Jeep clubs preferred venue.

Here is some info about it:
Off-roading in Hot Springs began in the late 1970's with people 'wheeling on a multitude of timber company logging roads, and utility company right-of-ways. Over the years this "unofficial trail system" grew into an impressive array of trails. It was great while it lasted... in 1999 the landowners closed access to the area and put the property up for sale.

In 2001, a group of off-road businessmen, enthusiasts and conservationists purchased the acreage with the intent of developing the nation’s premiere off-roading destination, while preserving the land's natural beauty.

The Park includes the majority of the original trail system, and new trails and obstacles with varying degrees of difficulty are continuously being built on every terrain type imaginable -- hill climbs (both "finesse" and "horsepower required" types), mud pits, rock gardens, water crossings, you name it. All trails are mapped and posted with difficulty ratings for the various vehicle types, so you always know your location, and what to expect terrain-wise.

We offer both tent and RV campsites nestled in beautiful shaded hardwoods. Our shower-house and rest rooms are clean and climate-controlled.

* RV campsites with electrical and water hook-ups
* Primitive tent camping sites
* Restrooms / shower house
* Convenience store
* 3900 sq. ft. pavilion for group events
* Trails are clearly marked and difficulty rated
* Park fee includes a map
* Over 1,250 pristine wooded acres
* Family-oriented environment
* Club and group discounts available
* Member and Non-Member rate packages
* Official ATV Safety Institute training area

I've been several times, it's a great park.
Trails are rated from 1 (basically a dirt road) to 5 (Buggies).

With a 2" bb and 33's you should be able to do all the 3's and alot of the 4's. You may recieve some damage on the 4's though.

The only way I can " define " the experience @ SUPERLIFT is ::::: " It is the most fun you will have with your clothes ... ON !!!!"


Hope I am not too late to intice your desire to go to Superlift !!!! These are all " 3 " trails or less ; I have been on numerous " 4 " trails and only cracked my PLASTIC sahara side steps ; which gave me a reason to NEED rock sliders !!!!!
