About

American ATV Rentals gives you the keys and lets you explore at your own pace. No tour guide talking over the engine noise, no stopping when you don't want to stop. Just you, your machine, and 80 miles of trails winding through some of southern Utah's most diverse terrain.

The Full-Day Experience

The full-day rental is the way to go. You'll cross through eight different biomes (yes, eight) as the trail climbs from desert scrub into pine forests and back down again. The scenery changes every few miles. Red rock gives way to aspen groves. Meadows open up where you least expect them. It's the kind of variety that makes eight hours feel like three.

David, the owner, runs a tight ship without being uptight about it. He'll walk you through everything during orientation (the legal stuff, where to go, what not to do) and then trust you to handle yourself out there. People appreciate that he actually cares about your experience, not just getting you out the door.

Your Options

The self-guided format means you can take that photo stop without asking permission or push through to the next viewpoint if you're feeling it.

They rent several types of vehicles:

  • ATVs for solo riders or couples

  • Quads for a classic off-road experience

  • Side-by-sides for families or larger groups

The trails connect well with trips to Bryce Canyon National Park (about 30 minutes away), making this a solid addition to a park-focused itinerary. Fair warning: even the skeptics end up converts. Something about controlling your own adventure through this landscape just works.

The rental location sits in Panguitch, right off Highway 89. Easy to find, plenty of parking for your truck and trailer if you're bringing one. They handle snowmobile rentals in winter too, same self-guided philosophy, different kind of fun.

We chose American ATV Rentals being one of few available in early March. Well David hit it out of the park! We did a 4 hour rental to Peterson Point. Never could my wife and I imagined what a unique and changing landscape we would travel through, beyond awesome can not even describe our experience. David made sure our trip map was well highlighted and showed routes, landmarks, and the all important car wash at the end. The route was thoroughly described, and as such we never needed to look at the map, each landmark was passed just as described. We traversed mostly dry (luckily) riverbeds through Casto Canyon. You will never see anything else like this, so close. On our trip we never crossed another UTV or hiker, and felt we had the entire area to ourselves. This will probably never happen once the season progresses. Peterson Point did not disappoint, and the views and immense and amazing. Upon return a trip through the car wash was required, using about 5 cycles to get all the mud off, but soooo worth it!!! BTW, gas usage was almost negligible, less than 2 gallons for a 29 mile round trip. Can not recommend American UTV Rentals enough.

We had an absolute ball on our 4 hour ATV trip. The staff was so friendly, and we were given excellent instruction on using the ATVs and a map of the trail. Highly recommend!

Anyone considering renting in Panguitch/ Bryce Canyon area I would strongly recommend American ATV rentals, David is exceptional when it comes to any questions. We took our adult children as well as grandchildren age 2 through 7 and David gave us an awesome route on the trails some in open country and a very enjoyable ride into the mountains and canyons. He made us feel very comfortable with heading out into the unknown. Thank-you so much for offering the opportunity to experience something you would never see in a passenger vehicle.
